5.0

Nathaniel Philbrick always writes interesting and detailed histories. Bunker Hill tells the story of the battles of Lexington and Concord through the battle of Bunker Hill until the British finally leave Boston after a months-long siege. The author is able to impart all his research in an easy reading style that gives the reader the information they seek about this period of history.
He doesn't get bogged down in tactics but gives enough details so the reader can picture the happenstances that sparked the beginnings of the American Revolution. I very much enjoyed this book and heartily recommend it to fans of history.
