About the Author

Marc Stockwell-Moniz lives history, specifically the American Revolution. A literal Son of the American Revolution born in Cambridge Massachusetts where George Washington first took command of the fledgling army, Marc can trace his lineage back to English and French kings. His family has been in America since 1650, fully 126 years before the creation of the United States. For him, reading about history is not an academic subject; it’s his family album. When Marc writes about the Revolutionary War, he does not describe historical figures. He describes real people who are his family and friends. Marc graduated from San Diego State University in 1978 with a degree in Journalism, and now lives in Southern California with his wife, Teresa, and their young daughter, Danielle. When he is not writing, he delights in talking to audiences of children and adults about the Revolutionary War and early American history.
