Bunker Hill
Nathaniel Philbrick is an award-winning historian and National Book Award winner known for his ability to weave exhaustive research into gripping maritime and colonial narratives. In this book, he chronicles the volatile transition from colonial unrest to full-scale rebellion by focusing on the bloody 1775 battle and its impact on the city of Boston. The book explores the chaotic reality of the conflict that transformed a localized protest into a national war. Ultimately, Philbrick argues that the carnage at Bunker Hill was the definitive turning point that proved the American colonists were committed to a long and costly struggle for independence.
New York: Viking, 2013. 1st edition. 398 pages. Hardcover book with dustjacket. The book is in NEAR FINE condition with some small stains on the bottom page edges and a very small dent on the top of the front board. The dustjacket has some very slight creasing on the corners and the spine joints. Overall NEAR FINE.
