McCullough combed through mountains of historic documents on both sides of the Atlantic to write the narrative of this most important period in American history.
This book will be used in my classroom as a resource for the students to use. ”
“Have to love the way McCullough writes. This was especially interesting to me because I live on Long Island. Had no idea that so much of the Revolutionary War in 1776 happened in the New York Metro area. ”
