I am trying to find a book for an old friend who, like me, is 68 years old. He is looking for a book that he read when he was about 12 years old called “Son(s) of Liberty”. All he can remember is that it was about a few men like John Adams and probably George Washington (and others) who were involved in the Revolutionary War. He also thinks it might have had a red cover. And lastly, he grew up in the Baltimore area if that’s any help.
Perhaps…..”Sons of Liberty; a story of the Life and Times of Paul Revere” by Dyer, Walter A, published 1920. The time period covers the Revolutionary War, mentions are made of John Adams and Washington.

Thanks for this suggestion! I will pass on this info to the interested parties.
Could it be Gertrude Robinson: Sons of Liberty (1941)?
Possibly Johnny Tremaine, by Esther Forbes? (1943)
