Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Rick Atkinson presents volume one of The Revolution Trilogy, a new series about the American Revolution. Full of riveting details and untold stories, The British are Coming examines the first twenty-one months of America’s violent war for independence, from the battles at Lexington and Concord in spring 1775 to those at Trenton and Princeton in winter 1777, a tale of heroes and knaves, of sacrifice and blunder, of redemption and profound suffering.
