I've had this book hanging around for years, and sat down to read it after McCulloch's 1776. Pancake provides a great overview of the campaigns of 1777. Though it doesn't focus on Saratoga, or Oriskany, or Brandywine, it puts them into a larger context that helps the reader understand the goals of the British high command, and how the Continental army responded to them. It reinforces my view of Washington as a great commander. ( ) Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya
"A revisionist view of the Revolution's most crucial year... it explodes many of the myths surrounding Burgoyne's Canadian expedition and Howe's Pennsylvania campaign. There is a wealth of fascinating detail in this book, including information on arms and supplies, rations for women camp followers, and even the numbers of carts (30-odd) carrying Burgoyne's luggage." --History Book Club Newsletter No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |
