In this masterful book, David McCullough tells the intensely human story of those who marched with General George Washington in the year of the Declaration of Independence -- when the whole American cause was riding on their success, without which all hope for independence would have been dashed and the noble ideals of the Declaration would have amounted to little more than words on paper. Based on extensive research in both American and British archives, 1776 is a powerful drama written with extraordinary narrative vitality. It is the story of Americans in the ranks, men of every shape, size, and color, farmers, schoolteachers, shoemakers, no-accounts, and mere boys turned soldiers. And it is the story of the King's men, the British commander, William Howe, and his highly disciplined redcoats who looked on their rebel foes with contempt and fought with a valor too little known. At the center of the drama, with Washington, are two young American patriots, who, at first, knew no more of war than what they had read in books -- Nathanael Greene, a Quaker who was made a general at thirty-three, and Henry Knox, a twenty-five-year-old bookseller who had the preposterous idea of hauling the guns of Fort Ticonderoga overland to Boston in the dead of winter. But it is the American commander-in-chief who stands foremost -- Washington, who had never before led an army in battle. Written as a companion work to his celebrated biography of John Adams, David McCullough's 1776 is another landmark in the literature of American history.

这不是一部历史教材。如果一定要分类,勉强可以算国内的所谓“纪实文学”。但是其历史性、文学性和思想性都到达了一个相当的高度。我把它叫做“一年史”,是因为从题材上讲,它跟黄仁宇的《万历十五年》都是取历史长河中有特点的一年,加以详述。 第一,历史性:David McCullo...

評分 評分刚开头的时候,看见作者对战争规模的描述,会让人觉得,这真是一场原始的战争。双方加起来,三五万人的规模,美国长期保持在大概一万出头的可作战部队规模,这放着中国历史上,的确算不得什么著名战役吧? 慢慢看下去,这场事关美国独立的战争,又慢慢凸显出了西方社会战争的明...
