This “blow-by-blow re-creation of George Washington’s 1776 Christmas crossing of the Delaware and the capture of Trenton . . . brims with colorful information” (Kirkus). The events of the American Revolution are often obscured by stubbornly held romantic myths. But in this fascinating study, Phillip Thomas Tucker eschews fiction and legend to provide an in-depth look at the Battle of Trenton, offering new insights and fresh analysis. Stories from many forgotten individuals of the war, including officers and soldiers from both sides, bring to life the Continental Army’s desperate circumstances and shocking victory. Tucker debunks many myths, including the Hessians’ slovenly drunkenness, Washington acting alone in creating the attack strategy, and Col. Johann Rall’s incompetence as a leader. By exploring the forgotten aspects of this pivotal battle, Tucker reveals an even more fascinating narrative. No chapter of American history was more miraculous than Washington’s improbable success at the battle of Trenton, where the nation’s fate was decided to almost everyone’s amazement on a dark, snowy morning.
