Abstract Those interested in the American Revolution-whether it be history buffs, undergraduates, teachers, or specialists-will find this collection provocative, informative and educational. Featuring almost ninety chapters by renowned and upcoming scholars, this three-volume collection considers the astonishing diversity of Revolutionary experiences: from silk-wearing legislators to starving Senecas, enslaved tobacco pickers to enraged tenant farmers, free black soldiers to struggling white seamstresses, mobile Tuscarora families to ambivalent sailors, and radical scribblers to reactionary preachers. It will cover the Revolution's earliest roots to its full fruit. In addition to important broad, topical essays, the volumes spotlight shorter yet innovative "viewpoints" that reveal the Revolution's drama on a human scale, telling the compelling stories of individuals, families, events, and objects. Accessible and authoritative, The Cambridge History of the American Revolution will be the chief reference text on the American Revolution for years to come. -- Provided by publisher.
