First Salute
Barbara Wertheim Tuchman. Ballantine Books, $18 (368pp) ISBN 978-0-345-33667-5
``In this brilliant slice of American Revolutionary history, Tuchman ( A Distant Mirror ; The Guns of August ) pits the 13 colonies against a rogues' gallery of British fools,'' wrote PW of this bestseller in cloth. ``Expertly weaving political and military history, Tuchman lets you feel how Washington's victory at Yorktown sent shock waves around the globe.''
