Bunker Hill: A City, a Siege, a Revolution

byNathaniel Philbrick

Focused on a City, a Siege, a Revolution, Bunker Hill brings Nathaniel Philbrick's historical account to a complex and consequential subject. Moving between close detail and context, the book explains the forces surrounding its subject and connects them to the wider field of history. The result avoids a single easy lesson, emphasizing instead how circumstances, institutions, and individual choices interacted over time. Together, these elements make Bunker Hill an accessible guide to the subject and the questions it continues to raise.
