REDCOATS AND REBELS is the first full-length popular history of the American War of Independence, the 'cruel accursed war' that changed the world for ever. The story of this war has usually been told in terms of a conflict between blundering Britishgenerals and their rigidly disciplined red-coated troops on the one side and heroic American patriots in homespun shirts and coonskin caps on the other. In this compelling narrative, the author portrays the realities of a war, condemned by thousandsof Americans, in which George Washington came perilously close to defeat. Both before and after General Burgoyne's surrender at Saratoga the British rarely lost a battle until the French helped the rebels defeat Lord Cornwallis at Yorktown in 1781.

We based our evaluation of book condition on the following criteria:

New: Just like it sounds. A brand-new, unused, unread copy in perfect condition.

Like New: An apparently unread copy in perfect condition. Dust cover is intact; pages are clean and are not marred by notes or folds of any kind.

 * Very Good: A copy that has been read, but remains in excellent condition. Pages are intact and are not marred by notes or highlighting, but may contain a neat previous owner name. The spine remains undamaged.

 * Good: A copy that has been read, but remains in clean condition. All pages are intact, and the cover is intact. The spine may show signs of wear. Pages can include limited notes and highlighting, and the copy can include "From the library of" labels or previous owner inscriptions.

 * Acceptable: A readable copy. All pages are intact, and the cover is intact (the dust cover may be missing). Pages can include considerable notes--in pen or highlighter--but the notes cannot obscure the text.
