"""A long overdue study of one of the most disputed chapters of the War for Independence. The author's scholarship is first-rate, his argument convincing, and his writing a pleasure to follow. A fine and significant volume and a must for anyone interested in the Revolution.""--Frank J. Esposito, Distinguished Professor of History, Kean University ""Cabal! makes a compelling case and will be an important addition to scholarship in this area, perhaps the dominant one for years to come.""--Christian McBurney, author of Kidnapping the Enemy: The Special Operations to Capture Generals Charles Lee and Richard Prescott ""Lucidly written and compelling, Cabal! spells-out the ""who, what and why"" of the Conway Cabal. This is a genuinely significant book.""--Garry Wheeler Stone, coauthor of Fatal Sunday: George Washington, the Monmouth Campaign, and the Politics of Battle ""Although Lender works to correct the oversight and omission from the academic history side, the book is engaging and accessible enough to appeal to a wide audience. Students of the Revolution will find this an enjoyable read that adds valuable dimensions and insight into what was happening on the administrative side during the famed winter at Valley Forge.""--Journal of the American Revolution"
