1776 by David McCullough is quite good, I just recently read it.
My favorite "local" history book was about Rogers Rangers during the French and Indian War. I"m sorry I am blanking on the title right now. I thought it had something about "Northwest" in the title but I"m not finding it on Amazon.
Anyway, I think the pre-Revolutionary history of America is really interesting so don't forget to cover it in your reading.
