I was having a terrible time getting into the story ... until I just relaxed and let it flow. The cadence and language was very distracting at first but soon became comfortable. I am considering rereading it right away to more fully enjoy his workmanship. He is a brilliant writer for sure.

A good read about the darkest days of the revolution for the fledgling Continental Army under Washington. The Courage and fortitude displayed in this work should remind us that there is something worth suffering and dying for. Freedom.
