Breezy, lightly-sourced capsule histories of various Revolutionary War episodes. Better (read: any) source notes would be very useful. The writing is very informal, bordering on too informal - the stories themselves aren't told terribly, though. ( )

Brief, interesting stories that make for a good bathroom reader. Best for picking out anecdotes. The writing was uneven. Many of the stories tried to build suspense by hiding the name or location of the event until halfway through, which made for a very confusing story. ( )

This book is geared more towards high school students, but I would definitely use this book in my 5th grade class to read aloud an interesting story from the American Revolution. Could be a great hook either daily or once or twice a week.
