Almost a Miracle offers an illuminating portrait of the Revolutionary War, offering vivid descriptions of all the major engagements, from the first shots fired on Lexington Green to the surrender of General Cornwallis at Yorktown, revealing how these battles often hinged on intangibles such as leadership under fire, heroism, good fortune, blunders, tenacity, and surprise. Ferling paints sharp-eyed portraits of the key figures in the war. Some do not always measure up to their iconic reputations, including Washington himself.
