5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful masterpiece, September 7, 2011
This review is from: The Papers of General Nathanael Greene: Vol. X: 3 December 1781 - 6 April 1782 (Hardcover)
The academic team that has annotated the papers of Revolutionary Gen. Nathanael Greene has done an incredible job. Although I started working with the Greene volumes as a reference, I ended up reading a couple of them for pleasure. From the editors' explanation of how they've transliterated the original letters, to the glossary, the cross references, the annotations, and the explanations, they've opened up a world that would otherwise have been closed to all but the most specialized academics.

As for Greene himself, take out the 18th century random capitalization and punctuation, and you discover a modern man, sarcastic at times, often frustrated, with fast friendships, and a difficult job.
