Cambridge Forum is pleased to welcome NATHANIEL PHILBRICK and J.L. BELL.
Nathaniel Philbrick, author of Bunker Hill: A City, A Siege, A Revolution, shares a conversation with J.L. Bell on the bloody battle in Charlestown on June 17, 1775, which exposed leadership problems for both British and American forces and stirred up bitter arguments that echoed for decades. Even as the fighting took place, the Continental Congress in Philadelphia was choosing a new commander. What qualities did George Washington bring to the American army licking its wounds outside Boston?
