About this ebook

Now in its 4th edition, Revolutionary America explains the crucial events in the history of the United States between 1763 and 1815, when settlers in North America rebelled against British rule, won their independence in a long and bloody struggle, and created an enduring republic.

Centering the narrative on the politics of the early republic, Revolutionary America presents a concise history of the War of Independence and lays a distinctive foundation for students and scholars of the early American republic. Francis D. Cogliano pays particular attention to the experiences of those who were excluded from the immediate benefits and rights secured by the creation of the American republic, including women, Native Americans, and Black Americans. This fourth edition contains fully revised chapters to incorporate the insights of the latest scholarship. It also includes:

  • A new introduction that engages the 1619 versus 1776 debate
  • An updated and revised bibliography to reflect the most recent literature
  • Consideration of the degree to which the Revolution transformed American society

This book is essential reading for undergraduate classes in American History and the history of the Revolutionary War.
