The American Revolutionary War
Angebote / Angebote:
The American Revolution has been characterized politically as a united uprising of the American colonies and militarily within a guerrilla campaign against the inflexible British military establishment. Author Daniel Marston argues that this belief, though widespread, is a misconception. He contends that the American Revolution created deep political divisions in the population of the Thirteen Colonies, while militarily pitting veterans of the Seven Years War against one another, in a conflict that involved guerrilla tactics and classic eighteenth century campaign techniques on both sides. The peace treaty of 1783 that brought an end to war marked the formal beginning of the United States of America as an independent political entity. This groundbreaking, richly detailed, lavishly illustrated, and surprising history of the American Revolution tells the story in fresh and revelatory ways, encompassing political, strategic, tactical, cultural, and individual perspectives.
