Reginald Hargreaves wrote this interesting book about the British Army stationed in North America and the Caribbean Islands before and during the American Revolution. He begins with the establishment of the British Army in the mid-17th Century to counter and check the French Army in Canada. He explores the British Army strategy about the French and Indian War and also tells about the everyday life of the enlisted men and officers stationed throughout the American Colonies and British strongholds in the Caribbean. He explains the British Army point of view leading up to the Revolutionary War and how it effected the average British Soldier. I am interested in the viewpoints of the enemy fighting the American Army in the Revolution and Hargreaves did not disappoint. He has wit in his observations and hold the readers interest throughout this book. Easy to read, not to many tidious details, and a great point of view of the British side make this an enjoyable read. Highly recommended!
