Inhaltsangabe

Three families make the most of life during times of war, economic hardship, and prosperity and interact with historic figures along the way, giving a glimpse of American life from the War of 1812 to World War I.

While much of the action is centered around the Chesapeake Bay, the families-which include ex-slaves, immigrants, and those who make their living on the water-journey throughout the country and beyond to places such as Lake Champlain, West Point, Annapolis, Gettysburg, and France.

While there is time for romance and adventure, personal longings are thrown aside with the onset of the Civil War. Some get the chance to serve with Generals Ulysses Grant, Robert E. Lee, and Winfield Scott as they fight for their ideals. Meanwhile, the former slaves travel to Boston and become friends with Frederick Douglass and Harriet Tubman.

Delve into the triumphs and tragedies that determined the course of a nation and explore the real strengths and flaws of American heroes in They Shall Be Remembered.
