I too wondered about the younger brother's expectations and his legal suit. I really liked this book though and thought the contrast between the two girls was done really well.

Oh, me too. And I think it may have been your review that brought it to my attention!

Makes me curious about the time period and the incident that inspired the story.

Yes! It's worth looking up, because what I found really interesting was that it was a rising against English rule that *didn't* result in the typical slaughter of everyone involved, further stripping of what little rights the people had had, etc, etc. (Hee - that's why I've put my "It's exactly like American football, except you do it with a crown" userpic here - The Reduced Shakespeare Company's brilliant take on all the history plays!)
