The People's War: Original Voices of the American Revolution by Noel Rae
The People's War: Original Voices of the American Revolution by Noel Rae
The outcome was one of history's great, surprising events, David slaying Goliath. At the beginning of the war, which cast the world's most powerful nation against a shaky collection of its wildly independent colonies, no such outcome was conceivable. But as the upstarts slowly welded themselves into an effective fore, step by step the Americans whipped the mighty British to found the world's most enduring democracy.
See the war through the frank and vivid diaries and letters, reflective memoirs, lurid and sensational newspaper accounts, and sober official documents of the American Revolution. Hear the voices of the farmers and merchants, tradesmen and housewives, who joined with the generals and the country's new leaders to wage The People's War.
