This most recent novel is a sequel titled In All Cases Whatsoever, to reflect the unwavering arrogance of the English government, an attitude largely responsible for the war. Those who fought the Revolution, whether soldier or spy, were not only brave, but cunning and resourceful, and worthy of our attention for their fortitude. Many, including officers, were Englishmen who fought on the Yankee side
Ford, who is retired from the financial services industry, said he does not wish to abandon his beloved characters from the first two novels and is therefore planning a third to finish his series on this segment of the war. We hope that he is as successful in that project as were the first patriots. He and his wife, Ann, live in upstate New York.view less
