Reviews

I enjoyed Patriots, Redcoats, and Spies immensely. What a great read! I've been thinking about it all week. I am biased toward the subject and cause, but I suspect that even boys and girls with no such loyalties will find it compelling and enjoyable--and that it will cause them to want to know more about the American Revolution. This deserves to be widely read, for it will do our country and the history of its origins the important service of sparking curiosity about the War for Independence and the people who sacrificed so much to secure America's autonomy as a nation. * Robert McDonald, Associate Professor, US Military Academy *
