This book contains all that the reader of British accounts of the battle would expect but adds a great deal more about the political and military position of the Danes than most such readers may have previously understood. Without diminishing the British military achievement in any way, the extraordinary valour of the Danes is ensured its' proper place in history.
The content is presented in an objective and scholarly style but makes easy reading and this book would grace the bookshelves of any student of the Revolutionary War, not simply those with a maritime bias.
