An Author & Adventurer into History, Kiersten Marcil is the ambassador of a fantastical ride through the hidden deer paths of the American Revolutionary War in her book series, "The Enlightened."
Growing up, the Battlefields of Saratoga were her backyard and tourist sites like Fort Ticonderoga were an easy day trip, and Kiersten couldn’t have cared less back then. It wasn’t until journeying into adulthood that Kiersten grew to love books, and even then, not until she became a museum educator, that she discovered the fascinating world of history. It was from working as a research assistant for a book about the Constitutional Convention of 1787, however, that her fascination with the Revolutionary War flourished.
Today, Kiersten chairs the annual "Authors of the American Revolution Congress," which is a celebration of authors and historians devoted to that crucial period on her the founding of the United States, and serves on their board. She also hosts author and book editor interviews on a weekly program, "If These Pages Could Talk."
