Acknowledgments

Dr. Richard B. Bernstein, internationally recognized authority on the Revolutionary War, continues to make his tremendous contribution to the series, for which the author is most grateful. Jana Erickson has again spent much time and effort on the cover and the artwork. Richard Peterson has exercised his usual great patience and careful work of editing. Harriette Abels, consultant and editor, has guided the author with her wisdom and insight.

However, again, the men and women of the Revolution, whose spirit reaches across more than two centuries, are truly responsible for all that is good in this series.

The work proceeds only because of the contributions of many.
