Part 3. Exercise
Poorly Written and Inaccurate . A disappointing rehash of early works on the 1781 Siege of Yorktown. Half the book deals with the southern campaign of the American Revolution. The portion of the book dealing with Yorktown strays greatly from the chronological happenings of the siege. For example, the author starts detailing the story of the assaults on redoubts 9 and 10, which occurred on the night of October 14th. Before completing the account of the assaults, he jumps to the sortie by the British on the night of October 16th and then after several paragraphs goes back to the assaul on the redoubts. A better choice for those wanting to read about the siege is Henry P. Johnston's book on the Yorktown Campaign
Answer:
NEG
