Book excerpt: Explore the Captivating History of the American Revolution In an era where political discourse is becoming increasingly polarized, it is worth reflecting on the circumstances of America's foundation. When the British colonists in America got tired of Great Britain's rule, they rebelled against it. This difficult period was the American Revolution. The colonists fought against their country of origin, England, and demanded their independence in the Revolutionary War. Once these colonies gained freedom, they came together to form the independent country of the United States. Because of these strong men and women, the United States was formed as a democracy, a place where people were able to believe whatever religion they chose, and a place allowing for prosperity of all. Founding Fathers and their brilliance created the United States and gave it the foundation it still sits on. History shapes the present, and young learners must know about these important periods that formed the land in which they freely live in today. Let Dinobibi guide you through a discovery of this fascinating period of the road to independence documented through the American Revolution and the rise of the American Republic So if you want to learn more about the American Revolution, scroll up and click the "add to cart" button!

The authors tell the stories of the maps and cartographers whose talents have made these some of the most valuable artifacts in our nation's history.When warfare between Britain and her colonists erupted in 1775, maps provided the pictorial news about military matters.

Others from institutional and private collections are being published for the first time.
Download or read book Reluctant Revolutionaries written by Joseph S. Tiedemann and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The question of why New Yorkers were such reluctant revolutionaries has long bedeviled historians. In an innovative study of New York City between 1763 and 1776, Joseph S. Tiedemann explains how conscientiously residents labored to build a consensus under difficult circumstances. New Yorkers acted the way they did not because they were mostly loyalist or because a few patrician conservatives were able to stem the tide of revolution but because the population of their city was so heterogeneous that consensus was not easily achieved.Differences within the city's pluralistic population slowed the process of hammering out a course of action acceptable to the large majority. The consensus that finally emerged had to be cautious rather than militant in order to unite as many people as possible behind the revolutionary banner. Ultimately, the time it took was far less significant, Tiedemann notes, than the fact that New York proceeded to declare independence, and went on to become a pivotal state in the new nation. In framing his argument, Tiedemann explains the limitations of interpretations offered by both progressive, New Left, and consensus historians. Citing the work of scholars as diverse as Walter Laqueur, Theda Skocpol, and Louis Kreisberg, Tiedemann pays close attention to the dynamics of British colonial rule and its impact on New York.

Book excerpt: Is the 'United' Kingdom really as united as its name suggests? For many people in the UK, increasing nationalism in Scotland has come as rather a shock, raising questions about what Britain is, and where its future lies. In "The Road to Independence? Scotland since the Sixties", Murray Pittock not only gives an account of modern Scottish nationalism, but also explains what Scotland's role in Britain has been historically, and why it has changed radically in the last fifty years where the debate about independence has come to the fore. The author relates the economic, social and cultural history of Scotland, the rise of modern Scottish nationalism and the reasons for it, the recent history and differing character of Scotland's cities and cultural industries, the impact of multiculturalism on Scottish as distinct from British society, and the changes wrought by devolution, including the reasons for the election of Scotland's first-ever nationalist government in 2007. "The Road to Independence?" is the only history of Scotland available with a truly contemporary focus. In dealing with everything from modern painting to political structures it is remarkably comprehensive; in explaining the rise of modern nationalism it is of great importance to policy-makers and the wider public. It will be of interest to students of politics, history, law and social science, and to all who want to understand the rapidly changing face of Britain

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Co-Winner of the 2022 Harry M. Ward Book Prize From celebrated historian John Ferling, the underexplored history of the second half of the Revolutionary War, when, after years of fighting, American independence often seemed beyond reach. It was 1778, and the recent American victory at Saratoga had netted the U.S a powerful ally in France. Many, including General George Washington, presumed France's entrance into the war meant independence was just around the corner. Meanwhile, having lost an entire army at Saratoga, Great Britain pivoted to a “southern strategy.” The army would henceforth seek to regain its southern colonies, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia, a highly profitable segment of its pre-war American empire. Deep into 1780 Britain's new approach seemed headed for success as the U.S. economy collapsed and morale on the home front waned. By early 1781, Washington, and others, feared that France would drop out of the war if the Allies failed to score a decisive victory that year. Sir Henry Clinton, commander of Britain's army, thought “the rebellion is near its end.” Washington, who had been so optimistic in 1778, despaired: “I have almost ceased to hope.” Winning Independence is the dramatic story of how and why Great Britain-so close to regaining several southern colonies and rendering the postwar United States a fatally weak nation ultimately failed to win the war. The book explores the choices and decisions made by Clinton and Washington, and others, that ultimately led the French and American allies to clinch the pivotal victory at Yorktown that at long last secured American independence.

Download or read book Africa s Long Road Since Independence written by Keith Somerville and published by Penguin Press. This book was released on 2017-01-26 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'A superb book...genuinely innovative' Jack Spence OBE, King's College London Over the last half century, sub-Saharan Africa has not had one history, but many. Histories that have intertwined, converged and diverged. They have involved a continuing process of decolonization and state-building, conflict, economic problems but also progress and the perpetual interplay of structure and agency. This new view of those histories looks in particular at the relationship between territorial, economic, political and societal structures and human agency in the complex and sometimes confusing development of an independent Africa. The story starts well before the granting of independence to Ghana in 1957, but the book also looks at Africa in the closing decades of the old millennium and opening ones of the new. This is a book, too, about the history of the peoples of Africa and their struggle for economic development against the global economic straitjacket into which they were strapped by colonial rule and decolonisation. The importance of imposed or inherited structures, whether the global capitalist system, of which Africa is a subordinate part, or the artificial and often inappropriate state borders and political systems is discussed in the light of the exercise of agency by African peoples, political movements and leaders.

New England and the British military are at each others throat, the result of unfair taxation on the Colonies, yet deemed reasonable by the Crown for the price of protection.Imagine if you can who you might encounter on the streets of Philadelphia. Many delegates were together at the Continental Congress trying desperately to come up with solutions to appease their King. Further west imagine the frontier and the expansive wilderness, untamed and wild. Men had lived there for centuries as the native people or human beings as they called themselves, yet can you imagine seeing things through their eyes? Game was plentiful and the land pure because those dwelling there appreciated what they had and cherished their existence.During the American Revolution the inhabitants of the region were fully engaged, yet the colonists had mixed loyalties; some were dissatisfied with the British government and their 'Intolerable Acts', others were loyal to the Crown and would defend the King's honor at any cost. In addition, native people of many tribes found themselves fighting each other.This is the story of the Taylor family who lived on the western frontier of Pennsylvania, also in Philadelphia and New England. They, along with a host of friends and business associates, unite for the cause of liberty and freedom. Their loyalties will be tried and tested at every turn with the shifting tides of war.Seen through the eyes of Joshua Taylor, an adventurous young man and his father Ethan, a veteran of the French and Indian War, their journey begins with political change and unrest sweeping the land.
