"The Resistance" is the forty-seventh book in the "Animorphs" series, written by K.A. Applegate. It is known to have been ghostwritten by Ellen Geroux. It is the third book in the ten-book arc that finalized the story of the Animorphs. It is narrated by Jake, with flashbacks narrated by Isaiah Fitzhenry, a relative of Jake's who was a civil war lieutenant.

Plot Summary

A free Hork-Bajir is captured by the Yeerks and involuntarily reveals the location of the Hork-Bajir valley. The Animorphs (most of them) morph beavers to make a dam to flush the Yeerks out of the valley. Just before the battle for the valley, several Star Trek fans (believing the Animorphs to be actual aliens) assist the Animorphs. One of them is killed as a result. Meanwhile, every other chapter consists of somewhat-related diary entries from Lt. Isaiah Fitzhenry, a distant relative of Jake's great-grandfather, who fought in the American Civil War.
