Title: Angus read it.
Review: In October, 1775, King George III in England rode to Westminster, to state his need to crush the American English, called "Riotous rebels" by Lord North in Parliament. And so it started! This stirring book covers our struggle starting decades before Boston and 1776 ended with Washington surprising the Hessian`s at Trenton New Jersey. The Americans hadn't won in 1776, but they hadn't lost. They had survived by tactical retreats and outstanding leadership in the field and in Congress. America was a very large battlefield with few muddy roads and angry inhabitants. A really great book, that adds several centuries to your intellectual age. A book that is hard to set aside, until finished. For you history buffs, detailed source notes, bibliographies, and index. jcangus-1782.com
