But i would recomend it to anyone who wants to learn about a big part in American history. It is a large book and it can get a little boring cause it is filled with info. This book is good but many people may not like it. They all are looking for diferent goals but they dont really get described to much.
Plus there is two sides to this story the red coats and the colinest. And there is alot of characters that it doesent talk about cause its non fiction. And also on each page it kinda equals 4 pages in a regular book and sometimes just 2 normal pages. And also there are parts that you kind of need to read twice before you can fully understand it. And also there are pictures in random places and dates that are somewhat near eatchother. There is many diferent passages and it changes to different things way to much. I dont mind the style of the book but it is kind of confusing. It is filled with facts and dates and many chracters but the cool thing about this book is that the characters in this book are actually real.This book is great and it is a large book so there is so much to read and learn about.

And then you see a barel of a musket most people wouldent know what I mean but if you were in the reveloutionary war you would.
