Heroes or Villains?

Northumberland, June 1905. Six-year-old Robert E. Lee discovers an ancient, mythical object while playing in his grandfather's garden. That night, Robert listens as Grandfather recites the story of a distant cousin, Summers Lee, who ventures to the Americas during the British occupation of 1750. 'Heroes or Villains?' is a tale of a heroic quest to hostile lands full of strange new cultures, bloodthirsty savages, illicit trading and a near-death experience that defines a young man's future. The author tells a tale that introduces us to different generations of the Lee family. He takes us from the idyll English countryside to the wilderness of new colonies far away. We accompany the Lees during the revolutionary days of the American Civil War before the fulfilment of a powerful legacy during the Battle of the Somme.
