Fabulous Account of the Revolution in Maine,
By Rebecca Anne Goetz (rgoetz@abacus.bates.edu) (Bates College, Lewiston, ME) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Revolution Downeast (Paperback)
The Revolution in Maine has been by and large ignored by professional historians but Leamon effectively reveals the dimensions of revolutionary events in Maine. One need not be a professional, however, in order to enjoy this book. Leamon's prose makes the book's content both accessible and enjoyable. :) I highly recommend this book.

Enthralling,
By A Customer
This review is from: Revolution Downeast (Paperback)
Professor Leamon's wealth of knowledge and pithy style make this book a delight. I'm not a fan of positivistic approaches to history, but Leamon's insights, analysis, and strong literary voice endow Revolution Downeast with special character. It is obvious that Mr. Leamon devoted years of his professional career to ensuring the durability and integrity of his work.

An Informative, if not Always Readable, Historical Work,
By
This review is from: Revolution Downeast (Paperback)
_Revoltion Downeast_ is a fascinating look at the role Maine played in the American Revolution. While not quite the density of Prof. Baiylin's work, the book can be slow going. Being a Maine native myself, I found this book to be particularly interesting. Reading about the American Fleet at Penobscot Bay, I didn't know whether I should laugh or cry. This is definately a must read for anyone from around here.
