Review
"A notable merit of his account of the birth of the American revolution is its fairmindedness . . . readable and sensible." (Max Hastings SUNDAY TIMES)
"Vivid, realistic and sometimes shocking . . . [character] is certainly the animating spirit of this fine narrative history and, in a sprawling, vibrant cast, the character that emerges most forcefully is that of the city of Boston itself: tumultuous, vigorous and fascinating." (Ben McIntyre THE TIMES)
"Admirably even-handed . . . this perceptive account." (Andrew Roberts MAIL ON SUNDAY)
"Brilliantly told. Philbrick is a master narrator who has deployed every ounce of his considerable skill . . . to find the lifeblood of early America" (THE TIMES)
"This is popular history at its best: a taut narrative with a novelist’s touch, grounded in careful research." (MIAMI HERALD)
