' There is not a dry bone in this book. Harvey weilds his pen like a sabre, slashing with gusto at cant and received wisdom, and he leads an exhilarating charge into history'

Synopsis
The War of Independence was one of the founding events of today's world, but it has been simplified into a myth of liberty against oppression, right against wrong. A recent Hollywood film The Patriot, even borrowed atrocities from the Nazis and ascribed them to British redcoats., The War of Independence was one of the founding events of today's world, but it has been simplified into a myth of liberty against oppression, right against wrong. This text tells the story of this period's tumultuous events and how America emerged as the most powerful nation the world has seen., The War of Independence was one of the founding events of today's world, but it has been simplified into a myth of liberty against oppression, right against wrong. A recent Hollywood film The Patriot, even borrowed atrocities from the Nazis and ascribed them to British redcoats.;In reality London was simply too distant to rule with a heavy hand. The Boston Tea Party notwithstanding, taxes were only an excuse for protest - they were routinely avoided. What angered settlers more was the law that stopped them seizing Indian land. Love of liberty ran deep, but economics and demography were the driving forces of revolution - and it challenged not just Britain but American's own social order. Far from being united in patriotism, American in 1776 was violently divided over independence. Conversely, many in Britain favoured it, especially in preference to bloodshed.;The war was marred by incompetence and bad faith on both sides. It was also close. Before Yorktown, the rebel generals thought they were losing. But they knew they could not be defeated in the long run, as much as 200 years later in a war of striking similarities, the Vietnamese knew the same. After the fighting, about eight per cent of Americans left the country. Following four years of misrule the Constitutional Convention imposed its own conservative counter-revolution, and from cunning, idealism and courage emerged the most powerful nation the world has yet seen.

    Awesome seller! They were courteous with answering questions before purchase. They were also very polite and friendly. The book arrived safely, quickly, and even wrapped in a nice mylar cover. I currently have a collection of around 300 other similar era books, and this book will fit perfectly so it was very nice to see they took the care to make sure I got it as expected. Extremely happy with purchase and would buy from again without hesitation!!

    Item as described. I wasn't expecting it to have a brodart cover but that was a plus. Very well packed. In fact, too well packed. Getting through all the packaging was like peeling an onion, layer after layer after layer, and a whole lot of excessive tape - you'd have thought the item was fine china and not a book. I am very happy to recommend this seller and would buy from again, despite the difficulty with removing all the packaging.
