The stage play entitled "1776" is restricted to events surroundiing the signing of the Declaration of Independence. 

The recent book  by David McCullough  entitled "1776" covers the British occupation of Boston and the New York campaigns from 1775 through 1776.

The two works are not related but are both very enjoyable deiptctions of pivotal 
events that happened to take place in 1776.

Is the play and the book, both entitled "1776", the same?
