18 Staters14 FavorVisitor
For students of the Battle of Gettysburg, I highly recommend three by author Harry Pfanz. Gettysburg the First Day, Gettysburg the Second Day and Gettysburg: Culp’s Hill and Cemetery Hill are all incredibly well written and researched. Pfanz spent ten years as lead historian for the Gettysburg National Military Park.

He very thoroughly covers the imperial apparatus employed by Great Britain from 1745-1775 and how that apparatus failed to restrain the rapidly growing American colonies. He is very sympathetic to the imperial system, which is something I greatly appreciate.
I’ll keep adding adding Revolutionary War books (and others!) to this thread
