Description
Set during the American Revolution, this gripping historical novel recreates the 1779 Battle of Majabigwaduce, when a small British force attempts to establish and defend a fort on the Penobscot River in Massachusetts. Facing overwhelming American patriot forces, the British must rely on discipline, engineering, and courage while divisions in leadership threaten their chances of survival. Bernard Cornwell brings the campaign vividly to life through tense battlefield action, richly drawn characters, and a sharp exploration of military strategy, political conflict, and the human cost of war.
