I've read this fiction by Roberts:
  1. Arundel (Arnold's march to Quebec. Unbelievable story of privation marching through the Maine swamps and building bateau)
  2. Rabble in Arms (Sequel to Arundel. Picks up after Arnold's attack on Quebec and follows the retreat of the army down the St. Lawrence River to Lake Champlain. Masterful treatment of the Battle of Valcor Island on Lake Champlain which, although a loss for the Americans, slowed the British advance down the lake to connect with the Hudson enough so that they had to return to Canada for the winter of 1776-7. This ultimately lead to the victory at Saratoga the following year.)
  3. Lydia Bailey
  4. Northwest Passage (Major Robert Rogers during the French and Indian War)
  5. Oliver Wiswell (the Revolution from a Loyalist point of view)
