The British Are Coming: The War for America, Lexington to Princeton, 1775-1777 (The Revolution Trilogy, 1)

The American Revolution gets summarized so often it can start to feel like a list of dates rather than something that actually happened to real people. This book slows down and walks through the chaos, the doubt, and the close calls that made independence anything but a sure thing. It covers the political maneuvering as much as the battles, giving a fuller picture of how a ragtag group of colonies actually became a country. Rick Atkinson brings the same depth and narrative pace he’s known for in his WWII writing, making this one of the most readable accounts of the Revolution available.
