Description
A celebrated scholar's history of the American Revolution, from its origins to its aftermath, which emphasizes the contributions of groups usually omitted in this story: Native Americans, African Americans, and women. Woody Holton describes the origins and crucial battles of the Revolution from Lexington and Concord to the British surrender at Yorktown, always focusing on marginalized Americans, enslaved Africans and African Americans, Native Americans, women, and dissenters, and on overlooked factors such as weather, North America's unique geography, chance, misperception, attempts to manipulate public opinion, and disease.
