The Boys of '76 is a wonderful continuation of Charles Coffin's excellent history series. Written in his blow-by-blow style as a crack war-correspondent, his delightful attention to detail as an avid student of history, and his Christian conviction as a Boston Congregationalist, Coffin's coverage reveals the heart, soul mind and strength of the American War for Independence. And the fact that he writes in the 1870s allows his views to be refreshingly candid without being offensive. If you enjoyed Coffin's earlier books, The Story of Libeerty and The Sweet Land of Liberty, you will not be disappointed by The Boys of '76.
