About This Book
"Detailing the entire history of the struggle for independence, from Colonial governments and North American extensions of European wars to the early days of the American Republic, The Historical Atlas of the American Revolution uses full-color maps and vivid illustrations in two-page spreads to tell the story of the founding of the United States of America.
The book focuses on the land and sea battles of the Revolutionary War in places like Bunker Hill, Trenton, Saratoga, Guilford Courthouse, Chesapeake Bay, and Yorktown, but attention is also paid to aspects of society at large like the awakening of religious zeal inspired by George Whitefield and Jonathan Edwards, the destination of immigrants, the slave trade, and relations with Native Americans.
Also explored is the political dimension of the role of the colonies as a piece of the British Empire and the international impact of the Revolution, which eventually included active participation by the French, Spanish, and Dutch."--BOOK JACKET.
