American Insurgents, American Patriots
by T.H. Breen

Northwestern history professor T.H. Breen presents a new light on the origins of the struggle for independence, He presents letters, sermons and diaries to create a lively, account of ordinary farmers' growing resistance to the British government in the two years before the Declaration of Independence.

Fed up with the British Empire's demands for ever greater loyalty, obedience, and taxes, tens of thousands of rebellious insurgents laid the groundwork for a successful revolution. Their anger was every bit as important to the revolutionary story as the learned debates of the Founding Fathers.
