Between War and Peace brings listeners into the heart of the American Revolution through the extraordinary true story of Deborah Sampson, a young woman who refused to be confined by the expectations of her time. When women were told to remain silent, obedient, and safely behind the lines, Deborah cut her hair, bound her chest, took the name Robert Shurtlieff, and marched into the Continental Army.

What follows is a gripping journey of courage, faith, sacrifice, and identity as Deborah fights beside men who never suspect the truth. From the terror of battle to the burden of hiding who she really is, she must prove herself again and again in a world determined to deny her a place in history.

As America marks 250 years since the fight for independence, Deborah Sampson’s story speaks with renewed power. She reminds us that the Revolution was not won by famous generals alone, but by ordinary men and women who made extraordinary choices when history demanded it.

Richly researched and deeply moving, Between War and Peace is historical fiction for listeners who love untold stories, strong female protagonists, Revolutionary War history, and novels inspired by real lives. Her country needed courage. She answered the call and proved, once and for all, that courage knows no gender.
