"Historian John Maass brings closure to centuries of debate over the Revolutionary War's most crucial moments, in this original, penetrating, and highly readable analysis of the conflict's five great turning points." -- Edward G. Lengel, author of General George Washington: A Military Life' "This is a revealing and provocative read and belongs on any American Revolution bookshelf." -- Mark Edward Lender, author of 'Cabal! The Plot Against General Washington' "John Maass has entered the ongoing debate about the importance of battles and campaigns in determining a war's outcome. This well-written and excellent book argues persuasively that four campaigns and the Valley Forge winter were decisive turning points of the American Revolution. This superb book is especially welcome as we approach the 250th anniversaries of these pivotal events." -- Kevin J. Weddle, author of 'The Compleat Victory: Saratoga and the American Revolution' "A solid introduction to the war of independence through five key events in the conflict." -- History of War " From Trenton to Yorktown is a truly riveting work. Maass grabs the reader's attention and holds it to the very end." -- Military History Matters "[Y]ou'll have to read the well-written book... Whether or not you agree with his five points, you will appreciate the reasoning behind each of his five. Other battles and events are considered in passing, presenting a good overview of the American Revolution as we enter the 250th anniversary of the AWI...Enjoyed it." -- HMGS "John R. Maass produced a very readable and enjoyable narrative...His thoughtful narrative holds the reader's attention, resulting in a pleasant experience for the reader. The level of detail is appropriate for entry level readers of revolutionary history while his analysis will appeal to more seasoned students of the revolution." -- Journal of the American Revolution "Each chapter mixes narrative with judicious analysis...His writing is clear, his grasp of the sources sure, and his judgments are thoughtful...The debate, like history, will not end, and toward this end, Maass has made a worthy contribution." --ARMY Magazine, "John Maass has entered the ongoing debate about the importance of battles and campaigns in determining a war's outcome.

Synopsis
Published to coincide with the 250th anniversary, this sweeping narrative is an astute exploration of the five critical military events that changed the outcome of the Revolutionary war., Published to coincide with the 250th anniversary, this sweeping narrative is an astute exploration of the five critical military events that changed the outcome of the Revolutionary war. For eight grueling years, American and British military forces struggled in a bloody war over colonial independence. This conflict also ensnared Native American warriors and the armies and navies of France, Spain, the Dutch Republic, and several German principalities. From frozen Canada to tropical Florida and as far west as the Mississippi River, the Revolutionary War included hundreds of campaigns, battles, and skirmishes on land and sea in which soldiers and sailors fought and died for causes, crowns, and comrades. In this masterful, yet accessible narrative of America's fight for liberty, John R. Maass identifies the five decisive events that secured independence for the 13 hard-pressed but determined colonies. These include not only the obvious military victories such as Trenton, Princeton, and Yorktown but also the leadership and reforms that ensured Washington's forces were capable of enduring the harsh conditions of the winter of 1778. Similarly, King Louis XVI's decision to supply Continental troops during the Saratoga Campaign with desperately needed soldiers, arms, money, and fleets is also detailed as a key factor. These turning points, not all of them triumphs on the battlefield, delivered a victory for the new United States. By challenging conventional interpretations of what ensures victory in warfare, From Trenton to Yorktown offers a fresh perspective on the Revolutionary War., This sweeping narrative is an insightful exploration of the five critical military events that significantly shifted the trajectory of the conflict. From hard-fought and bloody victories on the battlefield to triumphs of leadership, diplomacy and logistics, historian John R. Maass challenges conventional notions of what constitutes true victory in war.
