General Howe, conqueror of New York
Description
"... illuminates the career of the British General whose decisive victory in the Battle of Long Island let him claim to the greatest prize in the colonies--New York City. Military historians detail the stages of the crucial battle and reveal how Howe's victory extended the war. Yet even with control over the center of finance, the largest port in the colonies and the gateway to the American interior, the British could not secure victory in the war."--A&E website.
