Great Read
This was a very good book. The history was great and it reads like a novel. It isn't dry and boring. When I got to the end I was disappointed. I wasn't disappointed in the book but that I had arrived at the end and wanted more! I wanted this book to be like 600 pages more! The author has that wonderful uncanny ability to create an ongoing visual play out in your mind as you read.

1776 by David McCullough (2006)
1776 by historian David McCullough is about the first year and a half of the war of the American Revolution. It speaks of George Washington, who had to keep an army together, despite personal depression and blunders, enlistment periods ending, deserters, spies, lack of money, morale, discipline and, diseases and deaths within the ranks. The book will later mention his victories at Trenton and Princeton. George the 3rd is another person in this book. He was only interested in punishing the colonists, not reconcile. He was aloof along with his government and military to what was the problems in the colonies. If he had vistited the colonies, he would of had understood the problems that faced them. There is also mentioned the ordinary men of the colonies who became officers under Washington ... 1776 by historian David McCullough is about the first year and a half of the war of the American Revolution.

The book will later mention his victories at Trenton and Princeton. George the 3rd is another person in this book. He was only interested in punishing the colonists, not reconcile. He was aloof along with his government and military to what was the problems in the colonies. If he had vistited the colonies, he would of had understood the problems that faced them. There is also mentioned the ordinary men of the colonies who became officers under Washington like Knox and Lee who used what men and know-how they had to harrass and even defeat the British. There were other men mentioned who sacrificed everything including family life and even their own lives in order to have freedom that we enjoy today. I recommend this book by historian David McCullough to those who are interested in the American Revolution`s early years and fill in the gaps of today`s history books. There are a few pictures in the book of the Brirish and the colonists include, along with the credits refreneces. This is the 3rd book from which I have read. I also recommend his 700 plus page book on John Adams. Adams did as much as a diplomat and politician as George Washington did on the battlefield. Adams with his diplomatic skills was able to presuade Holland and France to help out with financing the revolution. Adams as President skillfully avoided war (XYZ affair) with France during their turbulent period between Louis 16th and Napoleon, despite the goading of his Vice Preisdent Jefferson. The other book I have read is on the early life with Theodore Roosevelt. I will do a critique on the life of Theodore Roosevelt book soon. Earl Poulsen Vancouver, WA

As only McCullough can
1776 by David McCullough is a great historical writer's tour-de-force. From the pomp and circumstance of King George III's London to the dangerous, deadly and hard fought resistance of the defiant American Colonials, this authentic, beautifully written account of our Nation's birth comes to life on every page. I gave it a 5, but if I could, I would give it a 10. David McCullough hit all the notes with this one. If you haven't read it, put it on your list. You will not be disappointed. 1776 by David McCullough is a great historical writer's tour-de-force.

Great read for history buffs and patriots alike!
This book was hard to put down. It's a good look into the victories and losses, as well as the harsh conditions that General Washington and his ragtag army faced during 1776, backed up by historical documents and illustrations. It's a great read for any red-blooded, freedom-loving American Patriot!

Trials of our founding fathers
Very easy read and very enlightening. I had no idea how bad things were for Washington. He took on a very large undertaking to build the army. Considering how long it took for correspondence it is awsome that the army did so well. As with most books I felt there were areas that could have been trimed up some. But my admiration for our forefathers really grew after reading this book. We are a stong country built on moral values. No one is perfect but America comes pretty close.Very easy read and very enlightening. I had no idea how bad things were for Washington. He took on a very large undertaking to build the army.
