To Try Men's Souls

You think you know a bit of history, that it's been repeated and rehashed so many times there can't possibly be a way to do it again without being boring.

Then you read this book.

It says it's a novel, but the depth of research that clearly went into it could have supported a non-fiction work just as easily. It's not an alternate history, it stays true to the story, sometimes pointing out glaring facts I was absolutely not privy to until reading this.

Five stars! Loved it.
