The Last Battle (The Treegate Series)

Product Description

In the seventh and final book in the Treegate Book Series, Leonard Wibberley concludes his epic saga of the Treegate family during the War of 1812… Manly Treegate has become captain of the brig Wild Duck in the young United States Navy. He has orders to seize any British shipping sighted in West Indian waters—and he does so with the help of his old friend Gubu, leader of a band of pirates. Among Manly’s crew is young Peter Treegate, who often chafes under the discipline of a captain who happens to be his older brother but who is also determined to follow the family tradition of service. Meanwhile, Major Peter Treegate, uncle of the young Navy men, is meeting with dangers of his own as he experiences the war from the European side, seeking French help for the new government. The two Peter Treegates are reunited in the decisive Battle of New Orleans on Christmas 1814 when Andrew Jackson’s forces fight the last “big battle.” Recommended by Seton Home Study, Grade 8. The Last Battle is the last book in a seven-book series, which makes a great companion to study American History. THE TREEGATE BOOK SERIES Book 1: John Treegate’s Musket Book 2: Peter Treegate’s War Book 3: Sea Captain from Salem Book 4: Treegate’s Raiders Book 5: Leopard’s Prey Book 6: Manly Treegate Frontiersman (formerly titled Pawns Pawns) Book 7: The Last Battle Each book in the series is complete to itself and can be enjoyed if read in any order. However, for greatest reading pleasure, it’s recommended that the books be read in sequence. “Leonard Wibberley in ‘The Last Battle,’ concludes his Treegate family saga on a larger scale than the traditional sea story… His characters re spread over two continents, and they all wind up together to get into the Battle of New Orleans in 1814. It’s a good yarn—reading about brave young men under fire. Wibberley gives the landlubber an exciting voyage.”—The New York Times
