Sarah Bishop — Scott O'Dell

A Fight For Survival

Sarah Bishop used to cook and clean for her father and brother on their farm. She thought she'd do that all her life, until the Revolutionary War came to their village and changed everything for Sarah, forever.

Now she's a fugitive from the British army, living outside the law. Even with her musket to protect her, she lives in constant fear -- of wild animals, of starvation, of other people. But no matter how alone and desperate she is, Sarah knows one thing: nothing will make her lose her will to survive. And for Sarah Bishop, survival is all that counts.
