July 21, 2008: I liked this book because it was historical. I like reading stories about George Washington and learning about the Revolutionary War. I thought it was neat that the restaurant from the book still exists today in New York. This story is suspensful, it makes you want to read more. I think everyone should read this book because you learn a lot and it was interesting.
