REDCOATS AND REBELS is the first full-length popular history of the American War of Independence, the 'cruel accursed war' that changed the world for ever. The story of this war has usually been told in terms of a conflict between blundering Britishgenerals and their rigidly disciplined red-coated troops on the one side and heroic American patriots in homespun shirts and coonskin caps on the other. In this compelling narrative, the author portrays the realities of a war, condemned by thousandsof Americans, in which George Washington came perilously close to defeat. Both before and after General Burgoyne's surrender at Saratoga the British rarely lost a battle until the French helped the rebels defeat Lord Cornwallis at Yorktown in 1781.
