Critic reviews

"In clear, engaging language, Malcolm reconstructs the surroundings, relationships and political atmosphere of the Revolution.... Malcolm seamlessly captures the intersection of personal, political and military strategy. History buffs will revel in Peter's never-before-told story, which makes a vivid addition to Revolutionary War literature." ( Kirkus Reviews)
