Crossing the Delaware\ Arlan Dean

This book is about George Washington and the difficulties that him and his group of soldiers went through,and how everything happened in the battle, how everything started in the battle, and how everything ended. And at the end, George Washington said this:
"This is the turning point, men." ... "We have been chased by the British for too long. This is our country. We have earned the right to be free. Yet we will have to continue our fight to be free. Freedom is worth dying for. Without freedom there is nothing at all!" ... "Together we will win this war for America! Join me now for these reasons. Reenlist and send a message to England that we have just begun to fight. The king must know that we will fight!"
I thought this was an empowering speech.
