My buddy just released his self published book about his ancestor, Peter Francisco. I think it's a good read. Check out the website: http://www.herculesoftherevolution.com/
it is a historical fiction book, a lot of fun to read. feel free to post reviews here.

"By the age of 16, Peter stood 6’6” – a foot taller then the average man - and weighed 260 pounds, but his skin color had him trapped at the bottom of society in the New World. "





Quote :
"Towards the end of the war, George Washington has a 6’ broadsword made for Peter just in time for one of the most critical battles of the Revolution. "


Well, it sounds interesting and I never thought you could put George Washington and a 6' broadsword into the same sentence.

"Among those arriving at the church to occupy seats in the
visitor’s gallery were Susannah Anderson and her father, James. Peter
noticed their arrival, and just a single look at Susannah made his heart
skip a beat…at least it felt that way to Peter. Even though they lived in
totally different social strata, his previous encounters with both she and
her father emboldened Peter. Although his knees felt like the jelly Peter
had often spread on a Sunday morning biscuit, he ambled over to their
carriage. When he had covered the twenty or so yards distance, Peter
reached up to take hold of Susannah’s hand as she exited the fully
enclosed carriage. That touch sent chills down Peter’s spine."


I admit to cringing at any book that manages to use three clichés in one paragraph.

You bunch of goddamn fools. You can't fuck with me. I'll pwn your ass. I can type fourty-fucking-five goddamn words per fucking goddamn minute. You shit flecks don't even know how to comprehend that, fourty-fucking-five goddamn words per fucking goddamn minute, you'd go blind; I'd kill you with my fast-typing fingers so quickly you'd never know what hit you. What a bunch of fucking n00bs thinking they run this shit. Fourty-fucking-five goddamn words per fucking goddamn minute.

Did I ever tell you about the time Peter Francisco took me out to go get a drink with him? We go off looking for a bar and we can't find one. Finally Francisco takes me to a vacant lot and says, 'Here we are.' We sat there for a year and a half and sure enough someone constructs a bar around us. The day they opened we ordered a shot, drank it, and then burned the place to the ground. Francisco yelled over the roar of the flames, 'Always leave things the way you found em!

That Peter Francisco is a real son-of-a-bitch
