Title: Buy the dustjacket instead
Product review: The now widely popular genre of "popular history" has greatly increased interest in history. Thanks to the great writing of authors such as Steven Amrose, Thomas Fleming, and Joseph Ellis more people then ever are reading non fiction. The Execution of Major Andre should be avoided as pure fluff. The author goes so far as to provide fictional inner dialogue for Major Andre. No background is given to Andre other than some allusions to being dissatisfied working in his fathers counting house. Alexander Hamilton's relatinship with Andre was hardly mentioned. I gave it two stars based on the fact that you can get though in about an hour and a half so it won't waste much of your time.
