I just discovered a great read which offers some really good insight on the early days of the Revolutionary War. I found it as a free download but that deal is over. Here is a link for a e-book version for a decent price. http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/1776-thomas-fleming/1115441637?ean=2940016743325
The American Constitution is remarkable for its simplicity; but can only suffice a people habitually correct in their actions, and would be utterly inadequate to the wants of a different nation.  Change the domestic habits of the Americans, their religious devotion, and their high respect for morality, and it will not be necessary to change a single letter in the Constitution in order to vary the whole form of their government. - Francis Grund 1837

Bump.  I just got a notification that this is a Kindle ebooks at Amazon for $2.99 until April 28.  Looks like that is the same price as at B&N in the original post, but for Kindle readers...
