"Howard Fast is fiercely American, he is one of ours, one of our very best." -The Los Angeles Times One battle will determine the fate of Boston Three thousand soldiers from the world's greatest army... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I've read the historical accounts of the Delaware Crossing and the subsequent battle of Trenton. However, Howard Fast's work puts you inside the head of the characters. Granted some of this can be done with historical documents, but it can be clumsy and certainly less literate than this book. It's not a true history book, but it's a great way to get started or to help you visualize what happened.
