... that John Knox's journals provide one of the most complete accounts of the British Army's campaigns in North America from 1757 to 1760?

Comment Is it "most complete" or "one of the most complete"? The article and the hook say different things. ~ Riana ⁂ 03:47, 25 March 2013 (UTC)

Snow's book says "most". He repeats this claim on page 268. My less definite phrasing is due to my own natural caution, I think. I have changed the hook to agree with the article; unless you think I should change the article to match the hook? Regards--Ykraps (talk) 08:22, 25 March 2013 (UTC)

I personally think the more cautious phrasing is better, barring any other sources that cite it definitely as the "most" complete. :) It still makes a catchy hook in its current form, I think. In all other matters, I think this one is good to go. ~ Riana ⁂ 12:05, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
