Many histories of the American Revolution are written as if on stained glass, with George Washington's forces of good battling King George III's redcoat devils. The actual events were, of course, far more complex than that, and Robert Middlekauff undertakes the difficult task of separating the real from the mythic with great success. From him we learn that England taxed the colonials so heavily in an attempt to retire the massive debt incurred in defending those very colonials against other powers, notably France; that the writing of the Constitution was delayed for two years while states argued among themselves in the face of massive military losses; and that demographic shifts during the Revolution did much to increase America's ethic diversity at an early and decisive time. Vividly told, this is a superb account of the nation's founding..

In Rise to Rebellion, bestselling author Jeff Shaara captured the origins of the American Revolution as brilliantly as he depicted the Civil War in Gods and Generals and The Last Full Measure. Now he continues the amazing saga of how thirteen colonies became a nation, taking the conflict from kingdom and courtroom to the bold and bloody battlefields of war.

It was never a war in which the outcome was obvious. Despite their spirit and stamina, the colonists were outmanned and outfought by the brazen British army. General George Washington found his troops trounced in the battles of Brooklyn and Manhattan and retreated toward Pennsylvania. With the future of the colonies at its lowest ebb, Washington made his most fateful decision: to cross the Delaware River and attack the enemy. The stunning victory at Trenton began a saga of victory and defeat that concluded with the British surrender at Yorktown, a moment that changed the history of the world.

The despair and triumph of America’s first great army is conveyed in scenes as powerful as any Shaara has written, a story told from the points of view of some of the most memorable characters in American history. There is George Washington, the charismatic leader who held his army together to achieve an unlikely victory; Charles Cornwallis, the no-nonsense British general, more than a match for his colonial counterpart; Nathaniel Greene, who rose from obscurity to become the finest battlefield commander in Washington’s army; The Marquis de Lafayette, the young Frenchman who brought a soldier’s passion to America; and Benjamin Franklin, a brilliant man of science and philosophy who became the finest statesman of his day.

From Nathan Hale to Benedict Arnold, William Howe to “Light Horse” Harry Lee, from Trenton and Valley Forge, Brandywine and Yorktown, the American Revolution’s most immortal characters and poignant moments are brought to life in remarkable Shaara style. Yet, The Glorious Cause is more than just a story of the legendary six-year struggle. It is a tribute to an amazing people who turned ideas into action and fought to declare themselves free. Above all, it is a riveting novel that both expands and surpasses its beloved author’s best work.

This truly different cookbook introduces a revolutionary, patented cooking technique for using whole foods to build one-pot meals in about 20 minutes.

The only thing Glorious One-Pot Meals have in common with familiar one-pot meal methods -- such as crock pot stews, casseroles, skillet meals and stir-fries -- is that everything goes into one pot to cook. Specifically, for Glorious One-Pot Meals, a cast iron Dutch oven. Otherwise, there is nothing to compare to the ease, speed and convenience of Glorious One-Pot Meals and the surprising way that each ingredient maintains its integrity during the cooking process. You can even substitute frozen ingredients without adjusting the time needed to cook the recipe!

This is a low-fat, whole food-based infusion cooking technique that locks in nutrients for fresher flavors, varied textures and healthier meals. Recipes are based on the power of two, making this a great solution for feeding families of one, two, four, or even ten or more. Each Glorious One-Pot Meal recipe contains a complete and balanced dinner of protein, grains, and vegetable side dishes with the bonus of minimal preparation and only one pot to clean. Great for vegetarians (about one-third of the recipes are vegetarian, and with this flexible cooking solution, any Glorious One-Pot Meals recipe can easily be meatless or even vegan!), heart patients or sufferers from any chronic disease (Multiple Sclerosis, diabetes, cancer, obesity, etc.) or food allergy. Kosher cooks should not be put off by the cover photo: Glorious One-Pot Meals are a natural for following the laws of kashrut as well.

With an ingenious covered spiral so that the book will never flip closed and leave you short-handed in mid-pour, this cookbook includes more than just recipes: look for an entire chapter featuring tips for efficient weekly grocery shopping and advice on stocking a pantry and freezer for convenient meal preparation any time.

A lifesaver for everyone from busy parents looking to get a quick dinner on the table to newlyweds learning to cook to empty nesters needing only to cook for two now to seniors concerned with time-saving, healthy and satisfying meals, more than 10,000 home cooks already know and love Glorious One-Pot Meals.
