John Scherer's Reviews > Revolutionary Roads: Searching for the War That Made America Independent...and All the Places It Could Have Gone Terribly Wrong

4.25 stars. For me, a modern-day ramble across historical battlefields and grounds is almost catnip. Thompson does an excellent job mixing modern observations and descriptions w/ the historical ghostly images hidden behind sites. I also appreciated his narrative theme of the precarious nature of the ultimate outcome of independence. Well worth your time.
