About this audiobook
How did the United States become the country it is today? What led to its creation?
Adapted from Pulitzer Prize–winner Rick Atkinson’s deeply researched and stunningly vivid The British Are Coming, the young readers edition explores these questions and so much more as it delves into the American Revolution. A collection of key battles from the beginning of the war, including Lexington and Concord and the Battle of Bunker Hill, sets the scene, telling a story of liberation fraught with contradiction and intrigue.
History buffs and newcomers alike will be drawn into this fascinating audiobook.
A Macmillan Audio production from Henry Holt and Company.
