Reviews
In previous volumes of this series, Wright presumed to enlighten us on "secrets" of the Civil War and World War II. Here, he proclaims his goal of demythologizing our founding fathers and the cause for which they fought. For serious students of history, Wright's revelations must seem pompous; little here is new, and in repeating as fact many unverifiable but oft-repeated claims, Wright helps foster new mythologies. Still, he covers the gamut of the revolutionary era with a highly readable, breezy narrative style, and some of his speculations eloquently illustrate the ironies always present in grand historical movements. For general readers, this work will inform, amuse, and occasionally provide an interesting perspective on the Revolution. Jay Freeman
