After more than 200 years as a forgotten and anonymous soldier of the American Revolution, "Hessian to Patriot, the Story of J. Michael Frank" brings to life the experiences of a man who risked everything for his adopted country. He was tested in a host of assignments, first as a Hessian, at the Battle of Saratoga, then as a patriot, fighting to the decisive Battle of Yorktown. Drawn from muster rolls, orderly books, military journals and diaries of those who participated in the same actions as Michael, the author has pieced together what Michael must have felt and experienced throughout his 71/2 years of service in the American Revolutionary War. We follow him from his home in Germany, across the Atlantic Ocean to Canada. Then join him at the Battles of Saratoga, Monmouth, Sullivan's march and Yorktown. We suffer with him through the long cold winters at Valley Forge, Morristown and Fort Stanwix to his ultimate reward of land in Virgil, NY.
