&quot;Revolution&quot; is a chronicle of a remarkable contest fought between the largest, most powerful army on earth and a motley collection of men and boys, extremely ill equipped and inexperienced in the arts of warfare. It reveals how the radical revolutionaries, revered today as the nation&#39;s founding fathers, sometimes barely succeed and more often miserably fail to keep a healthy Continental army and a pusillanimous Continental Congress together.<br><br>Written in the present tense, as newspaper articles and interviews, &quot;Revolution&quot; is also the story of a civil conflict fought in a divided country where the words &quot;liberty&quot; and &quot;independence&quot; are equally cheered, cursed and ignored.
