The American rebels' victory over Britain seems so inevitable now, 200+ years in the future and after years of mildly patriotic schooling. This book makes it brutally clear that not only was the American victory NOT inevitable, it in fact was a goddamn miracle that the cause lasted beyond the first year.

This started out strong and by the end I couldn't wait for it to be done...

This a one of those books that you never read again but love it. 
1776 is about the War for Independence. He bring the God-like hero’s into a story that makes them more human. 
Mr. David writes about the “rebels” and the British. Not much to say other then very well written and very long with many helpful details. 
How the rebels struggled to fight for the freedom we have today. As I got through the end I kept wanting the book to go on. Thank for such wonderful and amazing insight on what happened in 1776!

-Happy Reading

Very Good. Fascinating look at the year and the revolution. I learned a good amount that I didn't realize and I would suggest it for any history buff. Well written, fast, fun in its own way.
