The author of this book, Alexander Lawrence, had an infatuation with the French aristocracy. Lawrence goes way out of this way to demonstrate to his readers his command of French. He also dwells on how great the commanders in the French Navy and Army were and the long and storied noble lineages that they came from. Unforunately, if you're interested in the Battle of Savannah, there are not too many books to choose from, so you'll be forced to wade through this volume if you want to learn something about the battle. The description of the battle itself is well-written and informatinve. The parts leading up to it and the end, particularly on what happened to this or that commander during the French Revolution were long and not relevant to topic of the book.

Storm Over Savannah: The Story of Count d'Estaing and the Siege of the Town in 1779 tells the story of France's attempt to take down Savannah, the center for Britain's military power in the colonies in 1779. This mission, led by Charles-Henri, Comte d'Estaing, was taken on by four thousand troops of King Louis XVI, in cooperation with Americans. This account of the little-known Siege of Savannah reveals a dramatic story worth telling.
