A wonderful interview with first time novelist Kathryn Goodwin Tone about her coming of age young adult novel "The King's Broad Arrow." Set against the backdrop of the American Revolution, Kathryn deftly spins a tale of factual history and fiction as we follow the adventures of young teenage boy. This is is a very well told and well written story that includes some fascinating history..Washington's gamble by inoculating soldiers against small pox, the printing of Common Sense, Enlightenment ideals and the power of books. More information about Kathryn's work can be found at her website www.revolutionrings.com.
