Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This book is very nicely done, both in content and in execution. The list of sites are very comprehensive and include states and locations which many Americans may not associate with the American Revolution, such as Maine and Tennessee. They could have done more with the Gulf Coast (the war was also waged in Florida, Alabama and Louisiana in and around the modern cities of Pensecola, Mobile, and Baton Rouge), but the fact they did as much as they have is to their credit. The only other flaw I saw was that while they provided web addresses for many sites, there are several who do not have their URLs listed, although they have sites of their own.
If you're looking for a complete list of Revolutionary War sites all over the Eastern United States, this book is about as close as you will come to finding it. The lay out is very attractive and easy to read and there are a great deal of full color photos associated with many of the sites.
