Bunker Hill by Howard Fast


The gentleman who wrote the book on which The Crossing was based is named Howard Fast. He wrote another historical narrative about Bunker Hill, simply called Bunker Hill. It is told from the perspective of a fictional doctor fighting with the American rebels and tells the story of the battle from the both the American and British side. It would make a great movie in the hands of the right director. There has never been a movie about this battle and it does have an honorable place in American history. Even thought the Americans lost it, the British sustained a high amount of casualties.
