Continental vs Redcoat: American Revolutionary War: Combat

Autor David Bonk Ilustrat de Johnny Shumate
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 20 noi 2014
The bloody campaigns of the American Revolutionary War pitted Britain's redcoats against Washington's Continentals in a host of encounters, from Germantown in 1777 to Cowpens in 1781.

The Redcoats were a highly trained organization manned by long-serving and experienced infantrymen with a formidable reputation forged on European battlefields during the Seven Years' War. So, how were the poorly trained, poorly supplied Continental infantry able to hold their own and shape the outcome of the Revolutionary War and establish the future of their young nation?

David Bonk answers this question in a highly illustrated book that looks at the challenges facing both armies, weighing up how each side was able to cope with the day-to-day experiences of the war and using extensive first-hand accounts to allow a modern audience to experience what life was like for soldiers on and off the battlefield during the war.

Featuring full-color artwork and lively analysis, this engaging study lifts the lid on what it was like to fight in the line of battle in the conflict that determined America's future.
