Savage War (The Long Fuse Book 2)

Savage War is the next spectacular episode in Jason Born’s lively series, The Long Fuse, which places the fate of empire into the flawed hearts of men. Familiar characters course with refreshed life. The collision of cultures in the American wilderness is grand in scope, but reserved in matters of the soul.

1754 A.D. War has erupted. Ephraim, who has renounced the pacifist teachings of his Quaker upbringing, is scrambling to supply the army after the defeat at Fort Necessity. The young widower is dedicated to an equally youthful George Washington, who soon sends him as a delegate to the Albany Congress. There, Ephraim will join with world-famous men to encourage the bickering colonies to unite and defend against the French. Should their efforts fail, London will be forced to dispatch a commander-in-chief of their own. Through grit, this general will forcibly yoke the thirteen colonies and take the largest army ever gathered on American soil into the wilds. Will he heed his provincial advisors and fight a different type of war? Or, will he march to battle in the European way? Regardless of his choice, Providence has decreed that men and women will be swallowed by an epic conflict.

Lives collide with one another and history, proving that individuals affect the fate of nations. Savage War snaps to life amidst a contest of body and will. It ends in a bubbling cauldron of strife along the banks of the Monongahela. Savage Ware is a brilliant yarn that gives breathtaking life to the birth pangs of a nation.
