George Murphy, owner and publisher of Sawmill Publishing Company, LLC announced today that due to a resurgence of American history popularity, with such mega hits as HBO's John Adams, they would be launching a new campaign on Murphy Gordon's Emy Moon.

Past releases of the young adult novel were well received, particularly with historical organizations, schools and young adults in California. "We need to get the word out about just how wonderful this historical novel is," says Murphy. "It instills an underlying interest in history to all who read it. We receive letters from teens who not only have no interest in history, but dislike reading as well, telling us just how entertaining Emy Moon is."

The sequel "Lucy Killgrew" is now available and continues to thrill readers with Lucy's exciting colonial adventure.

The author, Murphy Gordon has spoken at several very well known National Colonial American History society meetings and to be embraced by such respectable organizations for this work has spurred a flood of bookings to hear the author speak of Emy Moon.

What people are saying:

“Murphy Gordon has brought Colonial American History into the present day beautifully and sensitively. The spirituality will captivate audiences of all ages. "Emy Moon" is particularly a must read for anyone who remembers the Hallmark Hall of Fame production "The Love Letter". In addition, you should make sure to block out enough time to read the entire book because you won’t want to put it down once you begin reading it." – Mary Grindall

"I am a teacher and thought this book might interest my students who like history. So far two students have read this book and they both really enjoyed it. I would definitely recommend this book since right now a third student of mine is currently reading it and I have three more lined up ready to read it." - B. Parkin

”This book is really great. I hate reading but this book – I just couldn’t put it down! Every time I had to do something I would not stop thinking of what would happen next. My sister thought I was sick when she saw me reading. After the first two chapters I had to stop reading for a few days, but when I continued I finished more than half the book that day. I am in the eighth grade and moving to the ninth. I just wanted to let the author know what a great job he has done and hope he write another great book like Emy Moon.” - Stephanie

Emy Moon is a beautifully written young adult novel that takes the reader on an amazing voyage of discovery. Guided by the spirit of a young colonial tomboy, a young girl from California will discover a lost ancestor she knew nothing about.

What could be a new American Classic, Emy Moon is sure to awaken the mind, create a new awareness and perhaps raise the level of Patriotic Pride.
