The battles of the American Revolution are the centerpiece for the eighth installment of the “Great Battles for Boys” series written by Joe Giorello. In about 200 pages, the author takes young readers through the important battles―wins, losses, and draws―during the War for Independence.
This book accomplishes precisely what its author has set out to do, which is to get young boys interested in reading by way of the most exhilarating subject: war. The series includes the Civil War, World War I, World War II, and even battles of the ancient world and Middle Ages.
