Review title: An excellent and very readable book
Product review: This is an excellent book and I recommend it highly. More than almost any other author, Ketchum gives you a very real sense of what it was like to be a soldier in the revolution. In this he has gotten even better than in "Decisive Day", his book on Bunker Hill. The major players are very well characterized and the book as a whole reads like a page-turner. As to shortcomings, I would have liked about five or six more maps to give a better sense of place. The few maps included are not quite enough. Also I would have liked to see a short epilogue telling us what happened to the people Mr. Ketchum's skilful prose has brought to life for us. Last, I would have liked to see a short note on visiting the site of the battle and what museums or other resources are available. In general, though, I highly recommend this book.
