This was a superbly written and at times a hard book to read. Josiah Stubbs came from the gutter, and his fight to pull himself from that hellhole was as brutal as the fighting he and the British were engaged in with the French. Excellent book. Written as though Josiah was keeping a journal of his journey.  Written by a young man bound for greater things.
