    Summary Of Revolutionary Summer: The Birth Of American Independence By Joseph J. Ellis

    Throughout Chapter 8, Ellis covers Howe’s plans to catch the Americans on their way to Manhattan from Long Island.

I thoroughly enjoyed how critical Ellis is of the British army near the end of the revolution.…
