Angel in the Whirlwind - (Simon & Schuster America Collection) by Benson Bobrick (Paperback)

Angel in the Whirlwind is a thrilling narrative of America's epic struggle for independence, recounted by lauded historian Benson Bobrick.

Overwhelmed with debt following its victory in the French and Indian Wars, England imposed harsh new taxes on colonists, leading to rebellion and war.

Bobrick vividly describes all major battles, from Lexington and Concord to Yorktown, while weaving together social and political history to bring to life not only charismatic leaders but also lesser-known compatriots.

With fresh insight and compelling storytelling, Angel in the Whirlwind is a dramatic narrative of our nation's birth, full of passion and glory.
