    Congratulations to the readers and happy reading.

    I encourage everyone to read Dawn of Liberty by Amber Schamel. This is a true picture of history with these short stories bringing history to life. I enjoyed this book so much. I need to reread this book again with the 4th of July coming up, as it's a great reminder what Adams and other forefathers fought for in America.
