| Zusammenfassung: | Based on extensive research in both American and British archives, 1776 is the story of Americans in the ranks, men of every shape, size, and color, farmers, schoolteachers, shoemakers, no-accounts, and mere boys turned soldiers. And it is the story of the British commander, William Howe, and his highly disciplined redcoats who looked on their rebel foes with contempt and fought with a valor too little known. But it is the American commander-in-chief who stands foremost -- Washington, who had never before led an army in battle. |

| adam_text | In this stiiving book, Duvid JYIcCullougli tells
the intensely human story of those who marched
with General George Washington in the year of the
Declaration of Independence
American cause was riding on their success, without
which all hope for independence would have been
dashed and the noble ideals of the Declaration would
have amounted to little more than words on paper.
Based on extensive research in both American and
British archives,
with extraordinary narrative vitality. It is the story
of Americans in the ranks, men of every shape, size,
and color, farmers, schoolteachers, shoemakers, no-
accounts, and mere boys turned soldiers. And it is
the story of the King s men, the British commander,
William Howe, and his highly disciplined redcoats
who looked on their rebel foes with contempt and
fought with a valor too little known.
Here also is the Revolution as experienced by
American Loyalists, Hessian mercenaries, politi¬
cians, preachers, traitors, spies, men and women of
all kinds caught in the paths of war.
At the center of the drama, with Washington, are
two young American patriots, who, at first, knew no
more of war than what they had read in books
Nathanael Greene, a Quaker who was made a general
at thirty-three, and Henry Knox, a twenty-five-year-
old bookseller who had the preposterous idea of
hauling the guns of FortTiconderoga overland to
Boston in the dead of winter.
But it is the American commander-in-chief
who stands foremost
before led an army in battle.
The bookbegins in London on October
when His Majesty King George III went before
Parliament to declare America in rebellion and to
affirm his resolve to crush it. From there the story
moves to the Siege of Boston and its astonishing out¬
come, then to New York, where British ships and
(continuedfrom
British troops appear in numbers never imagined
and the newlyproclaimed Continental Army confronts
the enemy for the first time. David McCullough s
vivid rendering of the Battle of Brooklyn and the dar-
ing American escape that followed is a part of the
book few readers will ever forget.
As the crucial weeks pass, defeat follows defeat,
and in the long retreat across New Jersey, all hope
seems gone, until Washington launches the brilliant
stroke that will change history.
The darkest hours
as dark as any Americans have known. Especially in
our own tumultuous lime,
mony to kow rnuek is owed to a rare few in that
brave founding epoch, and what a miracle it was that
things turned out as they did.
