Teaser Tuesdays (Nov. 25)


This is my first Teaser Tuesdays because I usually don't have my current read sitting in my office. But today I do!

Here's how to play: (1) Grab your current read. (2) Let the book fall open to a random page. (3) Share two "teaser" sentences from the page, somewhere between lines 7 and 12. (4) Mention the title of book. (5) Don't post spoilers. For the full rules and to see what everyone else is reading, visit Should Be Reading here.

On the high ground above, George Washington saw the Hessian regiments rally in the apple orchard and watched them start up the hill toward his flank. With great speed and presence of mind, he instantly sent an order to Edward Hand's Pennsylvania Rifle Regiment and Haussegger's Pennsylvania and Maryland German regiment. (246)

Not sure these lines are going to sway anyone, but the book is truly interesting.

I've always wanted to know more about George Washington.

I tagged you on my blog, by the way: http://bettysbooks.blogspot.com/2008/11/book-on-your-left-meme.html

Interesting teaser - it's good to know you like the book. I don't generally pick up warish books, although do make the exception on occasion!

:) Here's my Teaser!

This teaser would be more interesting for my hubby. I am not much into history but he LOVES it!
