While the book mostly covers events of the American Revolutionary War that occurred in 1776, it also examines the background for those events. For example, what were the individuals who influenced those events really like. Or it relates interesting information about the culture as a whole.

A very interesting book about our American personality during the revolutionary period and that of some of our enemies---the British.

Just as an example, one out of every eight buildings in Boston was a drinking establishment.
