Jonas Spongeman Crossing by Paul Mullin published on 2009-12-21T04:40:15Z Two colonial sailors pole a boat across the Delaware River as they argue the finer points of revolutionary warfare and politics with an Irish cannoneer. It's Christmas night, 1776. The bitter rain has turned to driving snow. The river is choked with ice cakes the sizeof livestock. And on the other side are four hundred Hessians to be fought in the morning. Will they be asleep, drunk from their revels, like the Virginian General hopes? Or will they be waiting for the rag-tag rebel army with their own Christmas surprise? Genre Audio Historical Drama
