SUMMARY:"How The French Saved America"
DESCRIPTION:Americans today have a love/hate relationship with France\, but in this illuminating new history\, Tom Shachtman shows that without France\, there might not be a United States of America. How The French Saved America is about French aid to the Americans during the American Revolution. \nThis narrative history vividly captures the individual characters of our European brothers\, their battlefield and diplomatic bonds and clashes with Americans\, and the monumental role they played in America’s fight for independence and democracy. \nFor more information on Tom\, visit http://www.tomshachtman.com \nFree and open to the public. Registration is requested\, please call: 203-707-0710 \n
