I’m a fan and have read most of what you’ve written.

I’m reading the Fort for the second time because I found it so fascination and counter-popular-belief (in the U.S.) the first time.  This note is to let you know, if you don’t already, how poor is the synopsis offered by Amazon Kindle.  I can’t quite count the number of factual errors their writer packed into a few short paragraphs.  Quoted below:

The Fort: A Novel of the Revolutionary War kindle version by Bernard Cornwell (Author) .

>From New York Times bestselling author Bernard Cornwell—one of the greatest yet little-known skirmishes of the Revolution: the Penobscot Expedition, a battle that would reveal the true character of a legendary Revolutionary hero.

This new novel takes place during the very early days of the rebellion, or the War of Independence, in 18th century Massachusetts before Washington and before the organization of a colonial army. A small British fleet with a few soldiers on board had sailed in to be met, to their surprise, with an overwhelming strength of local militia.

Cornwell tells the story on both sides of the conflict, based largely on real figures, including of course Paul Revere (famous from the much later poem).
