DESCRIPTION:
When young Will Penn rode up to London to see the coronation parade with his father, a famouse British admiral, he was already a rebel at heart. Will believed in democracy and religious freedom -- dangerously unpopular ideas in England in those days. And eventually his beliefes would take him across 3,000 miles of ocean to found the colony of Pennsylvania. Hildegarde Dolson gives a lively, colorful account of how Penn and the men he called "brave adventurers" built a haven of liberty in America.
