2006 Scholar's Bookshelf reprint edition remains an exceptionally comprehensive source work for the American Revolution, invaluable for its seventy-six-chapter narrative history of the war and especially its 41 specially prepared topographical illustrations of all the major battlefields, created for the original 1881 publication, each accompanied by a capsule summary of the battle involved, the opposing forces, the events, the outcome, notes, and the references available at the time.
