From Valley Forge To Yorktown, Follow The Astonishing RealLife Journey Of The Revolutionary WarS Most Mythic Warrior.Contemporaries Called Him The Virginia Giant, The OneMan Army, The American Hercules. He Fought In An Honor Roll Of Revolutionary War Battles: Brandywine, Germantown, Camden, And Guilford Courthouse. He Wintered At Valley Forge And Witnessed The Surrender At Yorktown. He Was Reputed To Wield A Massive Broadsword. Four States Honored Him With Special Days; The Nation Celebrated Him With A Postage Stamp. Cloaked In Myth And Legend, The True Story Of Peter Francisco Has Never Been Told Until Now.Pedro Francisco Was Born To A Noble Family In The Portuguese Azores In 1760. Five Years Later, He Appeared On A Virginia Dock, The Victim Of Kidnapping. Adopted By A Relative Of Patrick Henry, Pedro Became Peter, Grew To A Massive SixAndAHalf Feet, And Took Up Blacksmithing. When The Revolution Erupted, Francisco Joined The Continental ArmyS Virginia Line And Fought Near Philadelphia At Brandywine And Germantown Before Spending The Bleak Winter Of 177778 At Valley Forge. Severely Wounded At Monmouth The Following Spring, Francisco Nevertheless Participated In Mad Anthony WayneS Bold Attack On Stony Point Along The Hudson River A Year Later.
