Overview
"This solid, workmanlike monograph, based on impressive research and laced with first rate maps… gives the reader a greater appreciation of the performance of the states and their leaders in the northern theater of the war. And it shows that Washington was flexible in his use of the militia, which at times surprised him with its turnout and its performance."-Reviews in American History"Everyone knows that George Washington distrusted the militia… .He has been quoted so often on the topic that even specialists do not realize that Washington also saw virtues in militiamen and used them with real skill." -Mark V. Kwasny
