Book Synopsis New England's Riotous Revolution by : Robert Ellis Cahill
Download or read book New England's Riotous Revolution written by Robert Ellis Cahill and published by Old Saltbox. This book was released on 1987 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "George Twelvetrees Hewes wasn't a midget, but he was close. After his funny exploits during the American Revolution, he wrote a journal, and the author uses this journal to weave his tantalizing true story of those great and little known characters who won our independence from England. People like Revere, John Adams and Hancock were not considered heroes by their co-patriots, whereas the eccentric Otis and the crafty Warren were the real leaders, their names are almost forgotten now. A real insight into the courage, humor and day-to-day lives of our revolutionaries."

Book Synopsis Society and Puritanism in Pre-revolutionary England by : Christopher Hill
Download or read book Society and Puritanism in Pre-revolutionary England written by Christopher Hill and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2018-09-25 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How Puritanism made modern Britain In order to understand the English Revolution and Civil War, it is essential to get a grasp on the nature of Puritanism. In this classic work of social history, Christopher Hill reveals Puritanism as a living faith, one responding to social as well as religious needs. It was a set of beliefs that answered the hopes and fears of yeomen and gentlemen, as well as merchants and artisans, in a time of tribulation and extraordinary turbulence. Over this period, Puritanism was interwoven into daily life. Here Hill looks at how rituals and practices such as oath-taking, the Sabbath, bawdy courts, and poor relief offered a way to bring order to social upheaval. He even offers an explanation for the emergence of the seemingly paradoxical figure of the age—the Puritan revolutionary.
Book Synopsis Riotous Assemblies by : Adrian Randall
Download or read book Riotous Assemblies written by Adrian Randall and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2006-11-30 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Riotous Assemblies examines eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century England through the lens of popular disorder. Tackling both the more closely-studied forms of protest, such as food riots, industrial disorders, and political disturbances, and much less well understood occasions of popular disorder, such as tax riots, turnpike riots, riots against the establishment of the militia, and religious riot, Adrian Randall re-engages the study of riot within a wider interpretation of the forces - social, economic and political - which were transforming society. He pays particular attention to disturbances in the years between 1795 and 1812, critically examining how far they indicated the major discontinuities discerned by earlier histories of protest, or whether they retained much of the character of earlier upheaval. Based upon detailed case studies and drawing upon the most recent research, the book extends the focus of earlier studies of protest. It locates the origins of disorder within the concepts of constitutionalism and the free-born Englishman, and argues that older attitudes proved far more tenacious than many have allowed.
