YANKEE DOODLE DANDIES

The ""Yankee Doodle Dandies"" are eight Revolutionary War generals: Henry Lee, John Glover, Anthony Wayne, Joshua Barney, Francis Marion, Nathaniel Green, Daniel Morgan, and Henry Knox. Mrs. McGiffin sketches their careers briefly, giving a quick character summary, descriptions of their most important battles, and some indication of their effect on the course of the war. The organization of each chapter is identical; the style is choppy and laden with cliches. A good-looking Jacket wraps up this unimpressive work.
