A fantastic piece of early American literature.

There are so many stories of American wars but so few of The Revolution. This window into the views of the time was fascinating, specific yet thorough, and of a pace that I did not expect fron literature of it's age.

There were, too, moments of great comedy with the battlefield doctor. It's fascinating to think that many early Americans would have laughed at the situationaly comedic moments as I did. It has held up remarkably well as both a historical perspective and as a genuine spy novel.

Absolutely fantastic!
