Praise

Praise for Lt. Col. (Ret.) Michael Lee Lanning:

“A thorough, long-overdue study of Black Americans’ contributions during the War of Independence. . . . An important piece of American and African-American history.” Kirkus Reviews on African Americans in the Revolutionary War
 
“In this fascinating and enlightening work, military historian Michael Lee Lanning reveals the little-known, critical, and heroic role African Americans played in the American Revolution, serving in integrated units – a situation that wouldn’t exist again until the Korean War, more than 150 years later.” Revolutionary War Journal on African Americans in the Revolutionary War
 
“A vivid history revealing the extraordinary bravery and crucial roles of blacks in the American military.” Kirkus Reviews on The African American Soldier

“One of the most honest and horrifying accounts of a combat soldier’s life to come out of the Vietnam War.” —The New York Times Book Review on Vietnam 1969-1970: A Company Commander’s Journal
 
“A well-researched, groundbreaking work that fills a huge gap in the historiography of the Vietnam War.” The San Francisco Journal on Inside the VC and NVA
