The Citizenship Revolution : Politics And The Creation Of The American Union, 1774-1804

Attribution
Douglas BradburnPublication Details
BookUniversity of Virginia Press2009Description
To those inclined to believe that the ratification of the Constitution assured the importance of national authority and law in the lives of American people, the emphasis on the significance and power of the states as the arbiter of American rights and the character of nationhood may seem strange. But, as Bradburn argues, state control of the ultimate meaning of American citizenship represented the first stable outcome of the crisis of authority, allegiance, and identity that had exploded in the American Revolution-a political settlement delicately reached in the first years of the nineteenth century.

War On The Run : The Epic Story Of Robert Rogers And The Conquest Of America’s First Frontier

Attribution
John F. RossPublication Details
BookBantam Books2009Description
Hailed as the father of today?s elite special forces, Robert Rogers was not only a wilderness warrior but North America?s first noteworthy playwright and authentic celebrity. Ross reconstructs the extraordinary achievements of this fearless and inspiring leader whose exploits in the early New England wilderness read like those of an action hero and whose innovative principles of unconventional warfare are still used today. The child of marginalized Scots-Irish immigrants, Robert Rogers learned to survive in New England?s dark and deadly forests, grasping, as did few others, that a new world required new forms of warfare.

The Peasant Prince : Thaddeus Kosciuszko And The Age Of Revolution

Attribution
Alex StorozynskiPublication Details
Book1st edThomas Dunne Books, St. Martin’s Press2009Description
Thaddeus Kosciuszko, a Polish-Lithuanian born in 1746, was one of the most important figures of the modern world. Kosciuszko went on to construct the fortifications for Philadelphia, devise battle plans that were integral to the American victory at the pivotal Battle of Saratoga, and designed the plans for Fortress West Point?the same plans that were stolen by Benedict Arnold. He became Commander in Chief of the Polish Army and valiantly led a defense against a Russian invasion, and in 1794 he led what was dubbed the Kosciuszko Uprising?a revolt of Polish-Lithuanian forces against the Russian occupiers.

Death Or Liberty : African Americans And Revolutionary America

Attribution
Douglas R. EgertonPublication Details
BookOxford University Press2009Description
Although this struggle often unfolded in the corridors of power, Egerton pays special attention to what black Americans did for themselves in these decades, and his narrative brims with compelling portraits of forgotten figures such as Quok Walker, a Massachusetts runaway who took his master to court and thereby helped end slavery in that state; In Death or Liberty…Douglas Egerton shows that African Americans not only extracted the most liberty from the Revolutionary experience but also paid the highest price for it.” (automatically summarized from Amazon.com)Availability
