For the most part, this brings history to life in a story-like fashion. I went into this book with the wrong expectations though, thinking it would be more inspirational than just historical.
Also, I felt like the end was really abrupt. It ends with the close of 1776, but the Revolutionary War is still in full force. I wanted more closure to the story.
