Seller stated in add that this book would be shipped with care. After purchasing book I asked to confirm that it would be protected with a turn of bubble wrap and a piece of cardboard on each side to protect the cover. Seller answered my shipping will increase from 5.61 to 15.61. When I asked the seller how she normally shipped with care she cancelled my order and issued a refund. Seller has been turned into e-bay.

If you like US history, extraordinary writing, and your freedom, you'll love this nook
One year in the life of a reluctant General George Washington, his key advisors, and what was initially a haphazard group of farmers-turned-soldiers took my breath away. Letters from the field to loved ones, maps of key battles, perspectives from both sides, especially Washington's, illustrate how the Americans, vastly outgunned and outnumbered, made themselves too expensive to fight for the most powerful army and Navy on Earth - England's and it's allies'. I was humbled in reading it, surprised that the Continental Army's first headquarters sat at One Broadway Street in New York City. The American Army was looked upon by the British as trash - viewed as game to hunt down and kill. How a rag-tag army of soon-to-be former British subjects showed their stones, even though a little too ... One year in the life of a reluctant General George Washington, his key advisors, and what was initially a haphazard group of farmers-turned-soldiers took my breath away. Letters from the field to loved ones, maps of key battles, perspectives from both sides, especially Washington's, illustrate how the Americans, vastly outgunned and outnumbered, made themselves too expensive to fight for the most powerful army and Navy on Earth - England's and it's allies'. I was humbled in reading it, surprised that the Continental Army's first headquarters sat at One Broadway Street in New York City. The American Army was looked upon by the British as trash - viewed as game to hunt down and kill. How a rag-tag army of soon-to-be former British subjects showed their stones, even though a little too much rum hindered them here and there. My favorite quote in the book by Washington's most valued staff, lawyer Joseph Reed in a letter home to his wife:. "When I look down and see the prodigious fleet they have collected, the preparations they have made, and consider the vast expenses incurred, I can't help being astonished that a people should come 3,000 miles at such risk, trouble and expense to rob, plunder, and destroy another people because they will not lay their lives and fortunes at their feet. ". As an American citizen - especially one not familiar with the prominent northeastern U.S. cities, this book changed my life.

This is one of David's best books in my opinion!
It is the year 1776 and General George Washington is under siege. The Congress is not paying salaries, there is no food, no clothing, men are deserting and the others are dying of illness. General Washington pulls from his deepest soul to motivate the men and turn the campaign to win the war for independence. It is a must read for all who treasure history!

History like it should be
Like many people, the history taught in school was boring to me. I don't dislike the subject of history, but the dry textbook facts made even the most exciting events seem uninteresting. I knew there had to be a better way of relating the events of the past. David McCullough is truly a gifted historian and writer who is able to make the past come alive. 1776 was one of the greatest books I've ever read, fiction or non-fiction. The delightful narrative style tells the story in a way that is interesting and fun to read. The book is not only rich in details of events that you would find in traditional textbooks, but it is also rich in details of the people's personalities and characteristics. For so many years I have only been able to visualize the American Founding Fathers ... Like many people, the history taught in school was boring to me.

The book is not only rich in details of events that you would find in traditional textbooks, but it is also rich in details of the people's personalities and characteristics. For so many years I have only been able to visualize the American Founding Fathers as figures in portraits I have seen, straight laced, serious, and without enthusiasm. McCullough's account of them brought them to life and revealed how passionate and courageous they all were. This book is ideal for anyone who wants to know what it was like during the most crucial time in American history. You will soon get sucked into the book and sent back in time to witness the vivid and colorful events that began this great nation.

A timely and gripping narrative...
There are certain periods of history that never seem to become tired or dull regardless of how often they are written about. It seems that each new investigator finds some thing new to write about. The American Revolution is a case in point. A quick check of books in print will convince you. David McCullough's 1776 is a terrific investigation into the beginning of the American Revolution. Is it perfect? NO. It does have some missing pieces. But these minor defects are just that...minor. If you look at the complete work, I think you'll find that what 1776 lacks is made up for by McCulloughs ability to deliver the main facts on time and in a way the reader can grasp. As in John Adams, McCullough again finds the ability to make the main characters jump off the page. ...

As in John Adams, McCullough again finds the ability to make the main characters jump off the page. Washington, a figure that history has rightfully made larger than life is once again a human man, tortured with doubts and always mindful that disaster is just around the corner. I especially like the treatment that McCullough give King George III. As a reader, I always like reading a book that moves along. McCullough's narrative does that quite well. In fact, some of the flaws that other reviewers have rightfully pointed out seem to spring from this style of writing. Well researched and paced for the non-historian, 1776 is a winner. When all is said and done, you'll find that 1776 is worth the time you'll spend reading it.
