"Entire books have been written about the causes of the American Revolution. This isn't one of them."

What it is, instead, is utterly interesting anecdotes (John Hancock fixates on salmon), from the inside out, close-up narrative filled with little-known details, lots of quotes that capture the spirit and voices of the principals ("If need be, I will raise one thousand men, subsist them at my own expense, and march myself at their head for the relief of Boston" -- George Washington), and action.

It's the story of the birth of our nation, complete with soldiers, spies, salmon sandwiches, and real facts. It's not dumbed-down or silly, but there is definitely a light-heartedness which brings the action to life while never compromising the facts.
