Download Whirlwind: The American Revolution and the War That Won It AudioBook Free
Amid a great collection of scholarship or grant and narrative record on the Revolutionary Conflict and the American have difficulty for independence, there is a gaping opening - the one which John Ferling's latest audiobook, Whirlwind, will fill up. Literature chronicling the revolution have largely ranged from multivolume tomes that charm to scholars and the most serious basic listeners to microhistories that automatically gloss over swaths of Independence-era record with only cursory treatment. Written in Ferling's participating and narrative-driven style that made books like Independence and The Ascent of George Washington critical and commercial successes, Whirlwind is a fast-paced and scrupulously advised one-volume history of this epochal time. Balancing social and politics concerns of the period and perspectives of the common American revolutionary with a careful study of the conflict itself, Ferling has made the ideal publication for armchair armed service record buffs, a publication about the causes of the American Revolution, the conflict that triumphed in it, and the meaning of the revolution overall. Incorporating careful scholarship or grant, arresting depth, and illustrative storytelling, Whirlwind is a unique and engaging addition to any collection of books on the American Revolution.
