		1776, in an on-the-scene, news reporting style, chronicles the events leading up to the signing of the Declaration of Independence and the events immediately following the Philadelphia signing in vivid, mesmerizing detail.
		1776 is not an historical narrative that bogs itself down in minutiae or incredible detail.

		Review: Although McCullough makes ample use of diaries and other sources in brining to life the critical year of 1776 it is inevitably the two Georges: George Washington and George III who dominate in this stirring tale of the origins of the Revolutionary War.
		Although hostilities had begun in 1775 at the beginning of 1776 a full-fledged war of independence was not a foregone conclusion as parties on both sides wished for reconciliation.
		Yet, as events unfolded including the British loss of Boston and Washington's humiliating defeat in Brooklyn the impetus toward full-fledged war became irresitible.

		Perhaps more than any other man, he realized how fortunate they were to merely survive the year, and he willingly lays the responsibility for their good fortune in the hands of God rather than his own.
		The reader should be aware that "1776" is merely an introduction to that year, for the actions of the other Founding Fathers (and Mothers) are barely mentioned.

		An exceptional narrative historian, McCullough vividly examines the characters and larger political and social developments that propelled the Revolution to produce a captivating, utterly readable portrait of the fight for independence.
		Especially in our own tumultuous time, 1776 is powerful testimony to how much is owed to a rare few in that brave founding epoch, and what a miracle it was that things turned out as they did.

		The 2002 DVD release of 1776 offers the 168-minute "director's cut" version of the film, which is about 20 minutes longer than the VHS release (though still shorter than the previously released 180-minute laserdisc, which director Peter H. Hunt has said included some material he didn't care for).
		For the uninitiated, 1776 is the story of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, and was first presented on Broadway in the late 1960s.
		However, purism aside, what 1776 makes clear is just what a close run thing independence really was, that there was, indeed, a significant proportion of Americans (and their representatives) who wished to remain loyal to the British crown.
