Title: Coherent and compelling
Review: Most books on history are informative but dull--1776 was engrossing. Even knowing that Washington must eventually prevail, I was anxious for him throughout the book. McCullough does an excellent job of focusing specifically on Washington and the people and events surrounding him, not on details that, while important, might distract from the storyline. The result is the most coherent historical book that I have read. History written in this fashion is memorable!
