"The story of Sergeant Lamb's adventures in the early years of the American Revolution as a soldier in the British army remains one of my favorite novels. Lamb's journey from Dublin to Boston, the references to the French and Indian War, and the descriptions of the Native American culture help create an exciting story in the tradition of "The Last of the Mohicans.""
"Although Rbt Graves wrote a whole series of novels about Segeant Lamb, this is the only one my father had and the only one I've read thusfar. Ostensibly, it is the account of a British soldier in America, trying to deal with the pesky colonials during what became our revolution. As a perspective different than that of the secular religion taught in the schools, it is well worth reading."
