Barbara W. Tuchman, the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of the classic The Guns of August, turns her sights homeward with this brilliant, insightful narrative of the Revolutionary War.In The First Salute, one of America's consummate historians crafts a rigorously original view of the American Revolution. Barbara W. Tuchman places the Revolution in the context of the centuries-long conflicts between England and both France and Holland, demonstrating how the aid to the American colonies of both these nations made the triumph of independence possible. She sheds new light on the key role played by the contending navies, paints a magnificent portrait of George Washington, and recounts in riveting detail the decisive campaign of the war at Yorktown. By turns lyrical and gripping, The First Salute is an exhilarating account of the birth of a nation. Praise for The First Salute "Nothing in a novel could be more thrilling than the moment in this glorious history when French soldiers arrive to] see a tall, familiar figure: George Washington. . . . It is only part of Tuchman's genius that she can reconstitute such scenes with so much precision and passion."--People
"Tuchman writes narrative history in the great tradition. . . . A persuasive book, which brings us entertaining pictures, scenes and characters."--Chicago Tribune
" A] tightly woven narrative, ingeniously structured."--The Christian Science Monitor

Handy Size, But Flimsy & Not Leak-Proof
Style: 100-Pk, Size: 6-Inch
I actually use these for my cat’s wet food, and while the size is perfect for that, they do have some downsides.
What I liked:
Great small size for snacks, desserts, or pet food
Convenient and disposable
Comes in bulk, which is helpful
What could be better:
Tends to leak through with wet food
Plates are somewhat flimsy
They stick together, which makes them a little annoying to separate
They work fine for lighter or dry items, but with anything moist, you’ll want to be careful or maybe double them up. For my use, they get the job done, just not perfectly.
Who this is great for:
Light snacks, desserts, or dry foods
Quick, disposable use
Pet owners for dry food or short-term use
Value:
Decent for bulk plates, but the quality limits how versatile they are.
Final Verdict:
Convenient and the right size, but the flimsiness and leaking are something to keep in mind. Best for lighter use.

Flimsy and thin and soaks through
Style: 300-Pk, Size: 6-Inch
So flimsy. That they stick together and you use 2 or three at a time. And if you don’t then anything soaks through them in short order.
