Product Description
This book is set in 1776 in the midst of the Revolutionary War in the USA. 14-year-old Nathan Wade is a patriot but he's too young to join the fight but when his cousin David arrives with his new invention - a water machine that can explode bombs underwater - Nathan is drawn into the action. David wants to launch his submarine against the British warships in New York harbour. It captures the drama of the first submarine used in naval warfare and the struggles of a teenager overcoming self-doubt. It is suitable for children aged 8 years and over.
