Michael Davis is an attorney in Denver, Colorado and a lover of history; the American Revolution in particular.  In 1994 he obtained a document that pertained to Abraham Hunt, a traitor to the revolution, who on Christmas night 1776, as Washington was crossing the Delaware, was entertaining the enemy.  In this book he presents the story of Hunt by putting him on trial. This book is written in a format of trial coverage with presentation of evidence and examination of Hunt.   An additional bibliography at the end of the story provides images of actual documents and pieces of history used to craft the story.

On Christmas night 1776, the American Revolution could have died on Abraham Hunt's doorstep. As George Washington was crossing the Delaware for his attack on Trenton, newly avowed loyalist Abraham Hunt was hosting a Christmas party for the enemy. Hunt could have pulled the pin on America's precarious struggle for independence, but he didn't. Was Washington extremely lucky, or was something more profound taking place? Culled from historic events and a recently discovered document, this book is an intriguing tale about how close we came to not becoming a nation.
