Description
The Revolutionary War as never told before.
This breathtaking installment in Bill O’Reilly and Martin Dugard’s mega-bestselling Killing series transports readers to the most important era in our nation’s history: the Revolutionary War. Told through the eyes of George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, and Great Britain’s King George III, Killing England chronicles the path to independence in gripping detail, taking the reader from the battlefields of America to the royal courts of Europe.
What started as protest and unrest in the colonies soon escalated to a world war with devastating casualties. O’Reilly and Dugard recreate the war’s landmark battles, including Bunker Hill, Long Island, Saratoga, and Yorktown, revealing the savagery of hand-to-hand combat and the often brutal conditions under which these brave American soldiers lived and fought. Also here is the reckless treachery of Benedict Arnold and the daring guerrilla tactics of the “Swamp Fox” Frances Marion.
A must read, Killing England reminds one and all how the course of history can be changed through the courage and determination of those intent on doing the impossible.

5By s0ys@uce69Let’s go America no one likes england they were horrible to the colonists with all of the taxesWashington
5By 21st Century SeekerExcellent! Killing Kennedy next.Amazing
5By BirdoWorkyGreat book just like the rest of “The Killing” series. It is amazing to read the in depth story of everything that went in to forming this great nation. It is very evident that these founding fathers would be appalled at the clown show currently occupying the White House, but at least they did the hard work initially. This book brings great hope that we can one day get back to the amazing country we were at its founding.All Hail Kings O’Reilly and Dugard!

5By WheresaliceThis should be required reading for all history classes in the US.Excellent book series
5By Jeweler12345The Killing.. books are all excellent - including well-researched info not usually found in most “history” books!Charging for a sample is bad business
1By Yackie JackCharging people to read a sample of the “thug” cursed language is like charging a potential buyer for a look at the outside of the new car they plan to buy. Maybe one recipe or something would be worth $3 but even that seems like a rip off. I planned to buy this book but after being charged for reading through trashy language, I will find my recipes elsewhere.Great quick read that will explain our birth as a nation
5By Coto jeffAn excellent book to start an exploration of how we came to be as a nation. Written with the flair of a novel you can not put down. Both highly entertaining and informative.Excellent Book, Brought the Revolutionary WarAlive
5By AG$$$$$My first read of a “killing series” book, and it is excellent. A historian myself, I wanted to see how the book compared, especially on George Washington, to other historical renditions—it was excellent. In fact, I learned some new facts by reading this book, both on Washington, but also on the Revolution itself. For that, I am grateful. A good and fast read for all!The best of the Killing Series!
5By PatquanGreat book, read it twice. I have it in hard back, signed by Mr O’Reilly. Everyone should read this book, it’s worth it.
