4.0 out of 5 stars
Fabulous view from a different angle than we usually see, but....,
By Retired Shipbuilder (Yorktown, VA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Battle of Yorktown, 1781: A Reassessment (Warfare in History) (Hardcover)
Grainger gives an exhaustively researched world wide view of the Yorktown campaign that particularly interests me as a resident of Yorktown living on Wormley Creek and sailing the surrounding waters. All of the author's verbose description of the crucial fleet actions in the Chesapeake Bay would be immeasurably enhanced by the addition of a nautical chart of the Bay entrance showing the location and depths of the described shoals and depths that controlled the fleet movements. The two simple maps in the front of the book are a wholly inadequate visual aid for an otherwise excellent work.
