About this title

Synopsis

Explore the hidden campaigns around New York in the Revolutionary War and how one strategic move changed the course of history.

This narration stitches together the military maneuvers, personal stories, and local scenes that shaped the struggle for New York during the Revolution. It follows Washington, Howe, and the Continentals through sieges, retreats, and foraging raids, showing how geography, weather, and daring decisions influenced the outcome.

From the shifting front lines on Brooklyn Heights to the skirmishes along the East River, the book brings to life the daily realities of war in the Neutral Ground. Readers will meet loyalists and patriots, hear about meals that helped avert disaster, and glimpse the way ordinary places—inns, farms, and bridges—became theaters of war.

Clear, narrative recounting of battles, retreats, and strategic choices around New York and Harlem.
Vivid scenes and anecdotes that illuminate both sides’ practices and mindsets.
Colorful portraits of local figures and landmarks that shaped the campaign.
Context that connects large events to everyday locations and people.

Ideal for history readers who enjoy vivid, place-based storytelling about the American Revolution and the New York region.
