by John F. Ross. Softbound, 576 pages, 8" x 5". Robert Rogers led an unorthadox unit of green provincials, raw woodsmen, farmers and Indian scouts on "impossible" missions in colonial America that are still soldiers' legends. Rogers' principles of unconventional war-,making would lay the groundwork for the colonial strategy later used in the War of Independence and prove so compelling that army rangers still study them today. Includes extensive footnotes, maps and bibliography.
