"Lively…Philbrick, guides us beautifully through Revolutionary Boston…" - New York Times Book Review "Masterly narrative… Philbrick tells the complex story superbly… gripping book…" - Wall Street Journal "A masterpiece of narrative and perspective…"- Boston Globe "You will delight in the story and the multitude of details Philbrick offers up."- USA Today "Riveting, fast-paced account…"- Los Angeles Times "Philbrick writes with freshness and clarity…"- St. Louis Post-Dispatch "This is popular history at its best: a taut narrative with a novelist's touch, grounded in careful research."- Miami Herald "Philbrick … has a flair for using primary sources to create scenes that sweep readers into the thick of history…BUNKER HILL is a tour de force, creating as vivid a picture as we are likely to get of the first engagements of the American Revolution…Philbrick is a gifted researcher and storyteller…"- Chicago Tribune "Philbrick…offers…surprising revelations and others in BUNKER HILL, a comprehensive and absorbing account of a battle…Extraordinary events produce extraordinary individuals, and Philbrick's portrayals are remarkably penetrating and vivid…Given the scale of the story, Philbrick, confirming his standing as one of America's pre-eminent historians, somehow manages to address all the essential components in a concise, readable style"- Cleveland Plain Dealer "Like a masterly chronicler, [Philbrick] has produced a tightly focused and richly detailed narrative that just happens to resonate with leadership lessons for all times….Philbrick is at his most vivid in conveying scenes of battle, both on the road between Boston and Concord and on the ridges of Bunker Hill. But what adds depth to the narrative is his fine sense of the ambitions that drive people in war and politics." - Washington Post "Another fine history from Nathaniel Philbrick…"- The Economist "Though you know the ending, you whip through the pages…"- Entertainment Weekly "Quite masterfully, Philbrick does not sink to simply good and evil distinctions in the run-up to Bunker Hill. The author reminds us that the freedoms colonists wanted were never intended to apply to blacks, American Indians or women. This was a messy time when decisions were sometimes dictated by ambition instead of some nobler trait."- Minneapolis Star-Tribune "[Philbrick] captures the drama-martial and emotional-of the months before and after this legendary clash."- The New Yorker "Philbrick spices his text with first-person accounts from many participants in the drama, including patriots, loyalists, generals, privates, spies, even the victim of a tar-and-feathering. This is easy-reading history, uncluttered by footnotes and assisted by some excellent maps."- Seattle Times, "Fascinating….No one can tell you about the history you thought you knew quite like Philbrick…" - Cape Cod Times "Philbrick … will be a candidate for another award with this ingenious, bottom-up look at Boston from the time of the December 1773 Tea Party to the iconic June 1775 battle….A rewarding approach to a well-worn subject, rich in anecdotes, opinion, bloodshed and Byzantine political maneuvering."- Kirkus (Starred Review) "Exhaustively researched, intelligent, and engaging narrative with a sophisticated approach. Collections … should certainly acquire this…."- Library Journal "Philbrick tells his tale in traditional fashion-briskly, colorfully, and with immediacy….no one has told this tale better."- Publishers Weekly "Crackling accounts of military movements…a superior talent for renewing interest in a famed event, Philbrick will again be in high demand from history buffs."- Booklist "Philbrick shows us historic figures, not only as if they had stepped away from their famous portraits, but as if we had read about them in last week's newspaper…Philbrick has developed a style that connects the power of narrative to decisive moments in American history." - Nantucket Today "A compelling, balanced and fresh narrative." - Christian Science Monitor "Philbrick's research is phenomenal …I suggest you pick up this enjoyable read." - Washington Independent Review of Books "You'll never have history told like this in school. If it were, you might find more kids interested in it." -The State Journal-Register "A gripping, suspense-driven recounting of the battles of Bunker and Breed's Hill…I couldn't put this book down with its seductive, detail-sharpened, heart-stopping narrative made all the more human by the people involved…powerful, eloquent, infinitely compelling, and just plain awesome." - Providence Journal

Synopsis
The bestselling author of In the Heart of the Sea, Mayflower , and In the Hurricane's Eye tells the story of the Boston battle that ignited the American Revolution, in this "masterpiece of narrative and perspective ." (Boston Globe) In the opening volume of his acclaimed American Revolution series, Nathaniel Philbrick turns his keen eye to pre-Revolutionary Boston and the spark that ignited the American Revolution. In the aftermath of the Boston Tea Party and the violence at Lexington and Concord, the conflict escalated and skirmishes gave way to outright war in the Battle of Bunker Hill. It was the bloodiest conflict of the revolutionary war, and the point of no return for the rebellious colonists. Philbrick gives us a fresh view of the story and its dynamic personalities, including John Adams, Samuel Adams, John Hancock, Paul Revere, and George Washington. With passion and insight, he reconstructs the revolutionary landscape--geographic and ideological--in a mesmerizing narrative of the robust, messy, blisteringly real origins of America.
