Book excerpt: Originally published in 1986, this book discusses the various meanings which historians have given to the term ‘American Revolution’.

This survey firstly examines the view from Britain and the consequences of the policy of exerting closer financial control over its colonies. It then discusses the colonists’ perception of British actions and their responses which were to culminate in the Declaration of Independence. It concludes by examining the continuing revolution within America after the break with England. This will be of interest to A Level and introductory undergraduate course.

Book Synopsis Ebenezer Hazard, Jeremy Belknap and the American Revolution by : Russell M. Lawson
Download or read book Ebenezer Hazard, Jeremy Belknap and the American Revolution written by Russell M. Lawson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-12-06 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 2011, this volume publishes the letters of Jeremy Belknap and Ebenezer Hazard. The letters encompassed twenty years, from 1779 to 1798, during a time when the United States was warring against England, establishing new governments, building a national identity, exploring the hinterland, and refining an American identity in prose and verse. The letters of Hazard and Belknap tell of an age when science and religion had not yet divorced due to irreconcilable differences, when the most profound philosophy nestled comfortably next to a childlike fascination with the remarkable. The two friends explored in their epistles the nature of love, death, and piety; the best way for humans to govern themselves; matters of religious and scientific truth and the best means to arrive at it; the methods and writing of history; human credulity; and the wonders of nature.

With contributions from leading scholars in the field, both American and international, The World of the Revolutionary American Republic is an important resource for any scholar of early America.
