About this ebook

The second of Roberts's epic novels of the American Revolution, Rabble in Arms was hailed by one critic as the greatest historical novel written about America upon its publication in 1933. Love, treachery, ambition, and idealism motivate an unforgettable cast of characters in a magnificent novel renowned not only for the beauty and horror of its story but also for its historical accuracy.

Frustrated not so much by the errors in the words, as the missing passages of unknown length. Somebody should have edited the OCR a bit better. Marvelous story though; wonderful prose for the climactic battles and aftermath.
