The Black Knights of the Hudson series is approximately a imaginary family in the U.S. Army, tracing their lives from 1860 through World Warfare II. The books should appeal to readers who enjoy historical fiction, family sagas, and armed service fiction. Changing of the Guard (1885 to 1898) is the 3rd e book in the tale of the MacKendrick family, who live by Western Point's motto of "Work, Honor, Country." Here the reader meets the brilliant offspring of Adam and Timothy MacKendrick. Together with the Indian Wars tapering down, the interest of the young country transforms to flexing its muscles. The MacKendricks are participating thoroughly with the changes facing both their country and their brilliant family. Randolph employs his daddy to Western Point, but finds the Academy much transformed from its start. Rather than producing the fantastic engineers, military, and statesmen of previous decades, Western Point is becoming an iron-bound institution that seems content to churn out little tin military. Philip, a maverick like his mom, has little curiosity about pursuing a armed service career, but transforms to a route that will need him to the depths of your collapsing coal mine and the heights of San Juan. Young Jackson Lee and Fitzjames yearn to check out in the footsteps of these father, and yield to the decision of the bugle when it appears to be for Cuba, long before they are really old enough to even enter in Western Point.
The MacKendricks eagerly embrace destiny as their country spreads its biceps and triceps beyond the continental racks. From the politics games of Washington, to the jungles of Cuba with Fighting' Joe Wheeler and Theodore Roosevelt, the MacKendrick women and men turn their encounters to the wind flow, and put up with tragedy and triumph with all the current flags flying.
