1776 by McCullough. I just finished reading it.
Good book, wasn't it? Yes, outstanding... although I got about 3/4ths of the way through the book thinking "How in the heck did we ever win this war?"

McCullough is a very good writer. His book on Truman was good.

Precisely.
Contrast that with today's fifth columnists (antiwar left).
We could lose this war too.

Try "Washington's Crossing," by David Hackett Fischer. Then you'll know how we won :)
