General Washington's Great Gamble is a study in leadership, good and bad, political machinations and the wild, unpredictable circumstances that led to the extraordinary confluence of military and naval resources at that time and place. Thanks to Washington's insight, Cornwallis's arrogance, and French tenacity and luck at the Battle of the Capes, all the elements of victory came together after half a decade of fighting, for that one, shining moment changing the course of history.
