The Secret Soldier by Ann McGovern

This book is about Deborah Sampson who is a American country leader because she is the first ever women soldier who dress’s as a man and enlists in the war as a continental soldier and has many adventures like one time she actually was shot in the leg but still stayed alive by surgically removed it herself and still not anyone who knew her secret and she goes to a march and finally is in a hospital from collapsing of exhaustion… My favorite part is the part when she describes the adventure of when she got shot in the leg and removed the musket ball herself! I think boys + girls 10 to 12 years old will enjoy this book a lot like me! RATING: ***** NN
