Excellent Collection of American History Reproductions
This is an excellent collection of American History replicas. I have several of these books that detail this style of "history in a box". This is one of the best. The period covered is from the French and Indian War to the War of 1812. I can only hope these authors ...
The Last of the Mohicans (The Classic Collection)
James Fenimore Cooper
Brilliance Audio on CD Unabridged
, 2005
Excellent Book
This was an excellent book that was different from the Hollywood version. Although I liked the movie, I was amazed to find out how much they changed the story. The book offers much more insight into the characters and explains the rest of the story. The narrator ...

Milton Meltzer
HarperTrophy
, 1993
American Revolutionary's review
This book is about the times and diffuculties that the the American soldiers endured. Milton Meltzer gathered lots of information about the war, as in many of the other " A history in You Own Words" series. The book is different because the way the author gives you his ...

The Birth of the Republic, 1763-89 (The Chicago History of American Civilization)
Edmund S. Morgan
University Of Chicago Press
, 1993
Concise Query into Ideology
One would think that justice cannot be done to the topic of ideology during the American Revolution in such a short book, but Edmund S. Morgan does the job quite well. In each chapter, you have an introduction to the various basic issues that confronted Americans ...
The Glorious Cause: The American Revolution, 1763-1789 (Oxford History of the United States)
Robert Middlekauff
Oxford University Press, USA
, 2007
Good but flawed
On balance this is a good, but a not great, book. I expected more from the first book in the Oxford History of the US series. This is not to say that the book is bad or not worth reading, it is just that it is, in my opinion, somewhat flawed, especially the first ...

William R. Nester
Praeger Publishers

For more than a century and a half, from 1607 to 1763, Britain and France struggled to master the eastern half of North America. They fought five blood-soaked wars and continuously provoked various Indian tribes to raise arms against each other's subjects for the mastery of the land. The last French and Indian War, from 1754 to 1760, would dwarf ...
