Decisive Day: The Battle for Bunker Hill
by
"Mr. Ketchum is a great author. This book sparked much of my interest in the American Revolution. Mr. Ketchum has a way of putting you there. You can picture the setting, you feel like you know the people involved, he puts a face and feeling on this monumental event in American history. I rarely read a book more than once. I have read this one 3 times. Bunker Hill was such a turning point in the revolution, the story needs to be told. We should know what happened there. "
