Country of broken stone

AI Rating: 1/10 - "Country of Broken Stone" (1980) is historical YA fiction set in pre-Revolutionary Boston, following young Heck, a girl working as a printer's apprentice amid Patriot-Loyalist tensions. Focuses on family loyalty, personal growth, and historical events like the Stamp Act. Mild gender role subversion (girl in "boy's" job) exists but serves storytelling, not messaging. No progressive politics, identity politics, diversity quotas, or social justice themes; prioritizes adventure and history over ideology.
