Book excerpt: The bestselling author of In the Heart of the Sea, Mayflower, and In the Hurricane's Eye tells the story of the Boston battle that ignited the American Revolution, in this "masterpiece of narrative and perspective." (Boston Globe) In the opening volume of his acclaimed American Revolution series, Nathaniel Philbrick turns his keen eye to pre-Revolutionary Boston and the spark that ignited the American Revolution. In the aftermath of the Boston Tea Party and the violence at Lexington and Concord, the conflict escalated and skirmishes gave way to outright war in the Battle of Bunker Hill. It was the bloodiest conflict of the revolutionary war, and the point of no return for the rebellious colonists. Philbrick gives us a fresh view of the story and its dynamic personalities, including John Adams, Samuel Adams, John Hancock, Paul Revere, and George Washington. With passion and insight, he reconstructs the revolutionary landscape—geographic and ideological—in a mesmerizing narrative of the robust, messy, blisteringly real origins of America.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Battle of Breed's Hill Having for years been satisfied that the accounts of Breed's Hill Battle, as given by Gordon, Warren, Ramsey and Marshall, are defective and imperfect, I have been induced to publish the transaction of that memorable event, as given by four American Major Generals, who were either in the action or had the best possible opportunities of being fully acquainted with the details of it. And who from their profession were better qualified to give a full and fair narrative, than any others who have undertaken it. To which are added the depositions of a number of highly respectable gentlemen who were eye witnesses of and partakers of the glory of that proud day. The following sheets, it is believed, will give a more full and accurate view of the troops engaged, by whom commanded, and all the transactions of the day, than any narrative extant. My objects are truth and justice to the living and the dead. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Discover the remarkable history of the Battle of Bunker Hill... In every war, there are those battles that mark a turning point, after which everything is different. These are the battles that help determine how the war will proceed. The Battle of Bunker Hill was one of those battles in the American Revolutionary War. While it was a battle that the American rebels lost, it was significant because it showed that a rag-tag band of civilian soldiers could in fact stand up to the best trained and most experienced military in the world at that time. Despite losing the battle, the American colonists managed to repulse the British advances twice before finally running out of ammunition during the third assault. Additionally, they killed or injured over 1,000 British soldiers as compared to only suffering a little over 400 casualties among their own ranks. It came as a surprise to the British who had gone into the battle supremely confident that they would easily win. They didn't count on the spirit of the colonial rebels who were, by that time, committed to the fight. The Battle of Bunker Hill changed the entire tone of the American Revolutionary War--from that point forward, the British knew they were in for a long, difficult fight, and the colonists had the confidence they needed to declare their independence from Great Britain and establish their own new country, the United States of America.

Book With Fire and Sword

    Book Details:
  • Author : James L. Nelson
  • Publisher : Macmillan
  • Release : 2011-03-01
  • ISBN : 1429968079
  • Pages : 381 pages

Download or read book With Fire and Sword written by James L. Nelson and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2011-03-01 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A masterful history of the first set-piece battle of the Revolutionary War, James L. Nelson's WithFire and Sword offers critical new insights into one of the most important actions of our country's founding. On June 17, 1775, the entire dynamic of the newborn American Revolution was changed. If the Battle of Lexington and Concord was, in the immortal words of Ralph Waldo Emerson, the "shot heard round the world," Bunker Hill was the volley that rocked Britain's Parliament and the ministry of King George III to its core. The Battle of Bunker Hill was the first hostile engagement of the Revolution between two organized armies, and the first time that a genuine American army had ever taken the field. It gave the British their first inkling that the Colonial rabble-in-arms they had envisioned might actually prove to be a formidable fighting force. In this book, award-winning author James L. Nelson tells the exciting and dramatic story of the fight that changed the face of the American Revolution. He looks at the events leading up to that fateful day, the personalities on both the British and American sides who made momentous decisions, and the bloody outcome of those crucial choices, which would affect the British strategy on the battlefield throughout the coming six more years of active warfare.

Israel Putnam at the Battle of Bunker Hill, of which it professes to be a history, is what we and the public are at present most concerned in. We are neither friends nor enemies to any one of the persons, who have been conspicuous in the controversy upon this subject. We have no motive but the love of truth. We expect no reward but the satisfaction of discovering and proclaiming it. Our first and principal object will be to settle the question whether Gen. Putnam was in the Battle of Bunker or Breed's Hill. The second and minor object will be to ascertain what credit ought to be attached to the 'Sketch'--P. [5].
