While I liked some of this author's other writing for Osprey, at almost thirty years on since publication, this is a book that has become dated, particularly in terms of Morrissey's bibliography. Ten years ago I picked it up used (and very cheaply!), probably at a library book sale, because I had questions about nuts-and-bolts military details in regards to another work on 'Bunker Hill,' Paul Lockhart's "The Whites of Their Eyes." On the basis of such things as orders of battle, it still might have some utility, besides privileging a British perspective on events. I suspect that most readers are now going to pick up Nathaniel Philbrick's "Bunker Hill" as their go-to book on the battle. ( ) sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

The British assault on Breed's Hill and the burning of Charlestown were the first major battles of the American Revolution; after the events at Boston there was no turning back. This detailed text by Brendan Morrissey explores the opposing commanders and forces involved, whilst describing how the sparks at Lexington and Concord ignited the smouldering resentment of the Colonists into the flame of a rebellion. Colonist militia were pitted against British Redcoats in a series of struggles which led the British to evacuate Boston and to George Washington taking command of the fledgling American army.
