Title: Very Good Blow by Blow accounts
Review: This book on CD is read by its author David McCullough. David is a scholar on all of the letters that were written by soldiers, Washington, the British and others during this period. This is not focused on John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, and what the Continental Congress were doing in 1776, but on Washington and his armies. The camp set up and troop conditions are told constantly. This is an eye opening account on how close the United States came to losing this war. What is most interesting about the book is George Washington himself. Here you have this great leader who is often indecisive, worried, and having his leadership called into question. Sometimes we forget that guys like Washington and other great leaders are like the rest of us in these areas. This is not an account of the entire war, but is just simply 1776. Well worth the money.
