The Marketplace Of Revolution : How Consumer Politics Shaped American Independence

  • The Marketplace Of Revolution : How Consumer Politics Shaped American Independence

  • Attribution

    T.H. Breen

  • Publication Details

    Book, Oxford University Press, 2005

  • Description

    The boycott movement–the signature of American resistance–invited colonists traditionally excluded from formal political processes to voice their opinions about liberty and rights within a revolutionary marketplace, an open, raucous public forum that defined itself around subscription lists passed door-to-door, voluntary associations, street protests, destruction of imported British goods, and incendiary newspaper exchanges. The Marketplace of Revolution explains how at a moment of political crisis Americans gave political meaning to the pursuit of happiness and learned how to make goods speak to power.

  • The Unknown American Revolution : The Unruly Birth Of Democracy And The Struggle To Create America

  • Attribution

    Gary B. Nash

  • Publication Details

    Book, Viking, 2005

  • Description

    In the rows of august marble busts that commemorate the American Revolution, we have lost sight of the true radical spirit of the longest and most disruptive upheaval in our history, argues distinguished American historian Gary B. In this ideal companion volume to Howard Zinn?s classic A People?s History of the United States, Nash re-creates the heady and often-violent excitement that convulsed American lives during the last three decades of the eighteenth century and presents a unique look at the struggle to create a new country.

The Creation Of America : Through Revolution To Empire

  • The Creation Of America : Through Revolution To Empire

  • Attribution

    Francis Jennings

  • Publication Details

    Book, Cambridge University Press, 2000

  • Description

    In the standard presentation of the American Revolution, a ragtag assortment of revolutionaries, inspired by the ideals of liberty and justice, rise to throw off the yoke of the British empire and bring democracy to the New World. We witness the founders’ invasion and attempted conquest of Canada and the “conquest” of Pennsylvania as Quakers and German pietists were deprived of citizenship rights and despoiled of property through armed force and legal trickery. By including the whole population in its history, Jennings provides an eloquent explanation for a host of anomalies, ambiguities, and iniquities that have followed in the Revolution’s wake.
