Excellent Historical Recount

So very interesting to hear about the Revolutionary War from a man who lived it. A true hero among many.

loved

awesome story definitely written by someone who is not a" author" but a profound story of suffering. although it reads sorta like a diary. the narrator dosent help this as it sounds like he's unenthusiasticly reading a text book in English class Out loud

Great History lesson!!

Happy I was able to take a look at the the actual hardships our countryman went through for us.

First hand account of the revolutionary war

Five stars for this book and narration, I found the language from the time period to be a real eye opener.

I loved the honesty and the truthfulness of how difficult it was.

This man is a true patriot the others of today are just impostors. Todays impostors need to sit down and shut up and read a few history books.
This would be a good one to start with.

American Revolution History as it happened

I think the biggest take away I had was an appreciation for the sacrifice of those who earned our freedom. A close second, as a retired member of the US Military is how little has changed. The lives an antics of corporals and privates are no different today. Thank you Plumb Martin for writing down your experiences and sharing them with later generations
