Summary: A vivid account of a standoff that made history
Review: Hudson Valley historian Lincoln Diamant presents Chaining The Hudson: The Fight For The River In The American Revolution, a fascinating history and narration of the naval battles of the American Revolutionary War that were fought along the Hudson River. Especially focussing upon the incredible five-year blockade of the Royal Navy, and grounded firmly in the logs, diaries, personal letters, and other rare historical documents and primary sources, Chaining The Hudson is a vivid account of a standoff that made history, which practically transports the reader to see history in the making. Informative and highly recommended reading.
