Editorial Reviews:
Synopsis:

Featuring a new introduction by the author, a lavishly illustrated, slip-cased edition of the best-selling work features thirty-five removable facsimiles of historical documents, including Washington's commissions as commander-in-chief, his hand-drawn maps of Boston, and diary entries from enlisted soldiers. 250,000 first printing.


Review:

"This is history at the ground level, sometimes even a few inches below. There is squishing mud for soldiers to trudge through, letters about absent loved ones and heartbreaking deaths, driving snow, and battlefields tipped with sun-gleaming bayonets like so many teeth grasping for prey. The prose is vibrant, and there is a telling insight into each character....But the book is essentially a portrait of the Continental Army's commander."

Joshua Micah Marshall, New Yorker, 05/23/2005

Review:

"Simply put, this is history writing at its best from one of its top practitioners."

Publishers Weekly, 02/21/2005

Book Description: Simon and Schuster, New York, 2007. Hardcover. Book Condition: New. 1st Edition. Quarto. SIMON & SCHUSTER, 2007. Hardcover. Quarto. Book Condition: New, Still in publisher's shrink wrap. Compendium to '1776,' David McCullough's bestselling account of the pivotal year of our nation's birth. The Illustrated Edition contains 140 images and thirty-seven removable replicas of source documents. More than three dozen source documents¿including a personal letter George Washington penned to Martha about his commission, a note informing the mother of a Continental soldier that her son has been taken prisoner, and a petition signed by Loyalists pledging their allegiance to the King¿are re-created in uniquely designed envelopes throughout the book and secured with the congressional seal. The text closely mirrors the original book, but omits or summarizes some parts deemed too long. The Illustrated Edition comes with its own protective slipcase, decorated with The Capture of the Hessians at Trenton by John Trumbull and has a "fake watermark" of the Great Seal of the United States on the back and front. The book is plain covered in blue with the golden embossed numbers "1776". An absolutely beautiful 'book', but more of a treasure chest which will fire your imagination and leave you wanting to learn more of our nation's beginnings. A New copy still in publisher's shrink wrap, Would make a great gift for that history lover in your life!. Bookseller Inventory # 000090
