This book was released on 2018-02-08 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Paragraph History of the American Revolution This little book extends to the American Revo lution the method which, in A Paragraph History of the United States, was applied to the history of the continent and nation entire. To those who are familiar with the struggle of the Colonies for independence, it will perhaps seem more remark able for what it omits than useful for what it con tains. But it is not intended for those who are familiar with that struggle for such rather as have never read a history proper, or who have heard only by chance and uncertain mention what our country's fathers did, and in these busy cen tennial times have only moments by the way in which to trace the outline. I hear that the Para graph History of the United States has gone into a school here and there as a text-book: possibly this, too, may serve as an incentive and directory to that broader, deeper, fuller study which should hold a first place in the attention of every Ameri can, old and young.

This book was released on 2016-09-17 with total page 660 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Colonial Merchants and the American Revolution, 1763-1776 A greater number of investigations of the American revolutionary epoch have been made in the last three or four decades than in all the preceding years. This dili gence has been the outgrowth of the modern spirit of historical research and has been productive of results which completely discredit the simple formulae by which the earlier historians explained the colonial revolt. In the light of these studies it is now almost universally agreed that the revolutionary movement was the product of a complexity of forces, governmental and personal, British and colonial, social, economic, geographical and religious. N o definitive history of the American Revol ution can be written until it becomes possible to appraise each one of these factors at its true value.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the American Revolution: With a Preliminary View of the Character and Principles of the Colonists, and Their Controversies With Great Britain Tan first intention of the writer of this book was to prepare an abstract of some one of the larger histories of the American Revolution, in a more compact form than any which he had met with in his own reading. The object was to present a convenient volume, which should embrace all the principal occurrences, civil, military, and political, in America and Europe, having a direct in uence on the principles and progress of the revolutionary contest, at the same time that it should avoid all minor details not positively necessary to the continuity or integrity of the narrative. The military events were to be made less pro minent than is usual; and all circumstantial accounts of battles and mancetwes in the field, beyond leading incidents important for the understanding of the issue, were to be avoided. After examining several of the principal authorities, the design of following any particular author was abandoned, and the present plan adopted, of re-writing and re-arranging the Whole, without regard to the order or language of previous histories. These are the claims of the work to originality. Its merits are submitted to the judgment of the public. The writer has diligently compared the received authorities, and exercised his judgment freely in selecting and arranging the essential facts; and he thinks he has brought within the compass of a volume convenient for popular use, a connected narrative of the revolution, em bracing all the principal events - foreign and domestic. Those portions which relate to the foreign negotiations, are more full in proportion, than the other divisions of the sub ject. They will be found, it is behaved, correct and valuable.

This book was released on 2018-02-03 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the American Revolution Tee discovery of the western hemisphere, effected by the bold and persevering genius of Christopher Columbus, in the year 1492, gave a new impulse to European activity; and the splendid conquests of the Spaniards in the West Indies, and in South America, excited the emulation of the other maritime powers of Christendom. Our ancestors were not dilatory in their endeavors to enter upon this new path to glory and wealth; for we find that, in the year 1498, John Cabot, by virtue of a commission from Henry VIL, took formal possession, in the name of that mon arch, of a considerable portion of the conti nent of North America. No attempt, however, was made to estab lish a colony in that country till the reign of Queen Elizabeth, when Sir Humphrey Gil bert and Sir Walter Raleigh, in the years 1578 and 1584, formed settlements there.

Download or read book The True History of the American Revolution (Classic Reprint) written by Sydney George Fisher and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The True History of the American Revolution The purpose of this history of the Revolution is to use the original authorities rather more frankly than has been the practice with our historians. They appear to have thought it advisable to omit from their narratives a great deal which, to me, seems essential to a true picture. I cannot feel satisfied with any description of the Revolution which treats the desire for independence as a sudden thought, and not a long growth and development, or which assumes that every detail of the conduct of the British government was absurdly stupid, even from its own point of view, and that the loyalists were few in numbers and their arguments not worth considering. I cannot see any advantage in not describing in their full meaning and force the smuggling, the buying of laws from the governors, and other irregular conduct in the colonies which led England to try to remodel them as soon as the fear of the French in Canada was removed. Nor can I accept a description which fails to reveal the salient details of the great controversy over the rather peculiar methods adopted by General Howe to suppress the rebellion. This controversy was a part of the Revolution. It involved the interesting question of Howe's instructions from the ministry and the methods which the ministry intended to use with the revolted colonists.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Literary History of the American Revolution, 1763-1783, Vol. 2 For the two volumes composing the present work, the most natural point of separation has seemed to be the year 1776, - a fact properly enough recorded in the secondary dates placed on the title-page of each. Thus, the chief aim of the first volume is to trace the development of political discontent in the anglo-american colonies from about the year 1763 until the year when that discontent culminated in the resolve for American Independence; while the chief aim of the second volume is to trace the development of the Revolutionary struggle under the altered conditions pro duced by this change in its object and in its character, and to go on with the tale until the year when American In dependence was formally acknowledged by the British government.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Literary History of the American Revolution, 1763-1783 There would, perhaps, be no injustice in describing this book as the product of a new method, at least of a method never before so fully applied, in the critical treatment of the American Revolution. The outward history of that famous procedure has been many times written, and is now, by a new breed of American scholars, being freshly rewrit ten ih the light of larger evidence, and under the direction of i a more disinterested and a more judicial spirit. In the pres ent work, for the first time in a systematic and a fairly complete way, is set forth the inward history of our Rev olution - the history of its ideas, its spiritual moods, its motives, its passions, even of its sportive caprices and its whims, as these uttered themselves at the time, whether consciously or not, in the various writings of the two par ties oi Americans who promoted or resisted that great movement.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sovereignty in the American Revolution: An Historical Study Up to this point we have been studying historically the ideas which men had during the American Revolution as to the nature of Congress, the state governments, and the powers of each. If the ideas and wishes 'of men were what the submitted facts and arguments seem to show, there could have been no common will demanding the creation of a national state. But this is the assertion made by the exponents of the sovereign Congress. A consciousness of nationality no doubt there was, because geographical position, laws, manners, history, and prevailing language2 all combined to that end, but it is a mistake to confuse the idea of nationality with that of the state. National consciousness may exist, as it did in the minds of the people of Germany and Italy, before a national state was created. The people dwelling in the loosely confederated states of Germany before 1866 were people of the same race 3 their eco nomic interests were quite as unified as were those of America in 1776, and their several governments were alike in character, but Germany had no central government endowed with sovereign powers, and there was no common will demanding the creation of a national state. This I conceive to have been the condition in America until the trying experiences of the period of the Confedera tion4 taught a majority of Americans, what a few had long seen, that the whole logic of the situation demanded the creation of a national state. Even then it was only with a grudging hand that the essen tials of sovereignty were granted to the government created by the Federal Constitution, and in so dubious a manner, that men have dis puted ever since as to whether a national state actually did then come into existence.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Massachusetts in the American Revolution While the outbreak and progress of the revolution incontestably led to a great ex pansion of the human mind, that movement was felt rather in the field and the council, than in the closet or the schools. The war against England, which requiredfor its successful prosecution great powers and distinguished talents, happily appeared to create and to foster both. Whenever the occasion arose, there were always found men worthy of the occasion. Those who had manifested no special commanding faculties in the piping times of peace, were found, under the rousing stimulus of war.

This book was released on 2016-10-12 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Navy in the War of the American Revolution As soon as the War of the Revolution was fairly entered upon, the subject of a navy engaged the attention of public men, and this was very natural, as the majority of the colonists were descendants of those who owed allegiance to the Mis tress oi the Seas. In October, I776, the Americans (i here use for the first time this distinctive title), had thirteen vessels in course of construction, and ten comparatively large, with several smaller ones in actual service. Early in 1781 all of these, having done more or less good service, had been removed from the list by various causes, mostly disasters. About this time Congress ordered to be built three 74's, five frigates and two smaller vessels. I can find no record of the larger vessels referred to, excepting the America, seventy four guns, a new ship, which was presented to Louis XVI of France in 1782. Private armed vessels, mostly small ones, were fitted out by the Colonies and accomplished, for the opportunities ai forded, effective service.
