Stamp Twice For Murder

---

RUFFLES AND DRUMS
"Could Betty Cavanna ever disappoint her faithful fol- lowing? No way. Sixteen-year-old Sarah Kent witnesses the occurrence at the 'rude bridge' at Concord, Massa- chusetts, in April, 1775. James Butler, a British soldier, is wounded and taken in by Sarah's parents, much against the girl's will, since a shot from his musket has killed her dog. Ms. Cavanna has re-created the period and its events superbly and Sarah looks like becoming one of the author's most appreciated heroines. We follow her in- tently as she copes with a rough life and finds herself falling in love with her former enemy, James, as he becomes a convert to the Rebel cause.

RUNAWAY VOYAGE
"Eliza is an appealing heroine; poor, downtrodden, but smart and sturdy, with just enough rebellion in her to break away from her oppressive lot and strike out for the unknown, in this case, as a stowaway aboard Asa Mer- cer's charter ship full of women bound for frontier Seattle. Cavanna moves the story along via the particu- lars of Eliza's sea voyage. Shipboard characters create color as they shape action. Based on an actual 1866 venture, the story constitutes an interesting sidelight on history and does well as satisfying recreational reading." -ALA Booklist
