Download or read book Sweet Land of Liberty written by Francis S. Fox and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2000-10-01 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is often said that the American Revolution was a conservative revolution, but in many parts of the British colonies the Revolution was anything but conservative. This book follows the Revolution in Pennsylvania’s backcountry through the experiences of eighteen men and women who lived in Northampton County during these years of turmoil. Fox’s account will startle many readers for whom the Revolution symbolizes the high-minded pursuit of liberty. In 1774, Northampton County was the second largest of Pennsylvania’s eleven counties, comprising more than 2,500 square miles, three towns (Allentown, Bethlehem, and Easton), and some 15,000 people. When the Revolution broke out, militias took control. Frontier justice replaced the rule of law as zealous patriots preoccupied themselves not with fighting the British but with seizing local political power and persecuting their pacifist neighbors. Sweet Land of Liberty reawakens the Revolution in Northampton County with sketches of men and women caught up in it. Seldom is this story told from the vantage point of common folks, let alone those in the backcountry. In Fox’s hands, we see in these individuals an altogether more disturbing Revolution than we have ever reckoned with before.

This book was released on 2001 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Northampton County was formed in 1752, taking land from the northern part of Bucks County, one of the three original counties of Pennsylvania... The county seat was established in Easton (still the county seat of Northampton)... Northampton lost about a half of its original area in 1772 when Northumberland County was formed. In all, the county underwent seven divisions before it attained its final borders in 1843... Counties which were once part of Northampton County were Wayne, formed in 1798; part of Schuylkill, formed in 1811; Lehigh, formed in 1812; Pike, formed in 1814; Monroe, formed in 1836; and finally, Carbon, formed in 1843. Territory taken by Northumberland from Northampton County eventually was divided into the counties of Lackawanna, Susquehanna, Bradford, Sullivan, Wyoming, Luzerne, part of Lycoming, and part of Columbia." -- P. iii.
