Sundered from all he knows -- the College of Lucidity, the rebel cause -- Octavian hopes to find safe harbor. Instead, he is soon to learn of Lord Dunmore's proclamation offering freedom to slaves who join the counterrevolutionary forces. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn Volume II of his unparalleled masterwork, M. T. Anderson recounts Octavian's experiences as the Revolutionary War explodes around him, thrusting him into intense battles and tantalizing him with elusive visions of liberty. Ultimately, this astonishing narrative escalates to a startling, deeply satisfying climax, while reexamining our national origins in a singularly provocative light.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Candlewick","offers":[{"title":"Astonishing Life of Octavian Nothing, Traitor to the Nation, Volume II: The Kingdom on the Waves | M T Anderson | Hardcover | 9780763629502 | Used: Like New | Back Stacks G 1788957","offer_id":50931015418114,"sku":"1788957","price":30.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/3327\/5906\/files\/71LIpy7RGpL.jpg?v=1793498379","url":"https:\/\/boswellsbooks.com\/products\/astonishing-life-of-octavian-nothing-traitor-to-the-nation-volume-ii-the-kingdom-on-the-waves","provider":"Boswell's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
