This book is a supplement to the exhibition honoring Jacob Jones and his naval career in the Ryves Holt House Museum, the house in which Jacob Jones spent his boyhood during the Revolutionary War. The book imagines what Jacob’s boyhood might have been like and it promises to inspire young readers to realize, like Jacob Jones, that their dreams can come true.
The Author, William Manthorpe is a retired captain who spent forty years in the U.S. Navy. Bill Meehan, Historic Lewes Publications Editor contributed to the Jacob Jones Story.
