A lot happened in 1776 in the colonies and a lot didn‘t happen. Several of the key events that we think of for the Revolutionary War happened in 1776, and yet there was a lot of just moving men and planning.
This was easy to listen to and interesting. The focus was on Washington and what he did. I wish there had been less focus on him.
Over all good worth the time.

lynneamch I've had this on my shelf for quite a while. Thanks for the reminder. A worthy goal for 2026! 5d

Started this Friday. Haven‘t listened to it since because I listen to audiobooks while I work and I took a couple mental health days.
I like McCullough he‘s good at telling the information in a palatable way.

dabbe Love him and really enjoyed this one. I still think my fave, though, is JOHN ADAMS. 6d

“Samuel Adams delivered what may count as the most remarkable second act in American life.”

The American naval war during the American Revolution wasn‘t fought by a navy (excluding the French Navy), but by privateers who saw profit in securing a percentage of the cargo of any British ship taken. This book details the story of those privateers, their successes and the failures. An interesting book. Signed copy.
