An account of the life of Major General William Phillips, a British officer whose achievements during the American revolution place him in the ranks of Britain's most successful generals such as Charles Cornwallis. Although he was a commoner, Phillips rose from the rank of cadet in the Royal Artillery Academy, distinguished himself through remarkable achievements in Europe's Seven Year War, and went on to command a field army in America. This story chronicles his extraordinary abilities, leadership and innovative style which left a lasting mark on British artillery tactics and military leadership, and provides insights into the captivity of Burgoyne's army, British operations in Virginia in 1781 and a detailed account of the Battle of Petersburg, Virginia.
