In this gripping history, Derek W. Beck draws on meticulous new research and previously unpublished documents to reveal the full story that ignited the Revolution - told from both the British and the American sides.
The Revolutionary War did not begin with the Declaration of Independence, but several years earlier with the Boston Tea Party. Spanning the years 17731775, Igniting the American Revolution sweeps readers to the passionate debates within the halls of Parliament and onwards to that fateful Expedition to Concord and the shot heard round the world. With exquisite detail and keen insight, Beck brings revolutionary America to life in all its enthusiastic and fiery patriotic fervor, painting a nuanced portrait of the war's perspectives, ambitions, people, and events.
