‘A thoroughly competent, multifaceted collection of essays that throw light on a complex campaign and which, as a bonus for modernists, raise uncomfortable questions about current campaigns as well.’ - Geoffrey Till, Diplomacy & Statecraft, Vol. 22, 2, June 2011'Strategy in the American War of Independence is a fine work that makes a solid contribution to both history and strategic studies.' - C. Dale Walton, Comparative Strategy, Vol. 30, 4, October 2011'A unique product that contains insightful analysis for those attempting to understand the strategic context of the American Revolution from the perspectives of both major and minor participants.' - Kevin D. McCranie, Journal of Strategic Studies, Vol. 34, No. 2, 283, April 2011 'Edited volumes often suffer from repitition in their attempt to provide a common theme. This book does not because the authors frequently disagree in detail, demonstrating the full range of interconnected research and how scholars differ in their interpretation of this multi-faceted conflict.' - Gene Allen Smith, Journal of Military History, Vol. 75, 3, July 2011
