My brother sam is dead: liturature update

The book that I just started reading is called "My Brother Sam is Dead". It is about the Revolutionary War, and the very beginnings of how it started. Right now, the main charecter is a boy (Tim) who's father is a loyalist to Dngland. However, Tim's brother, Sam, is a Patriot, and is part of the Minutemen. I am only a few pages into it, but it has started out well. The main conflict so far is "Father", and Sam fighting. Tim's Father wants to remain loyal to England, but Sam wants to fight for fredom. Because the book is written in the first person, you have unique insight into the thoughts of Tim, and allows you a interesting view of the Revolutionary War. I will post again when I am farther into the book.
