THE ESTABLISHMENT

The return of a classic novel by legendary author Howard Fast, acclaimed and bestselling author of the "Immigrants" saga, "Spartacus," and "Citizen Tom Paine." This is the simple and moving story of Jamie Stuart, of the 11th Regiment of the Pennsylvania Line. Stuart, bound to a cobbler, had run away to join the army at seventeen. Now as a man of twenty-two, he is chosen one of the Committee of Sergeants who, on New Year's Day of 1781 -- when open revolt seemed the only way to justify the principles for which they fought -- organize and hold the Line together against its officers.
