The long conflict that culminated in the American Revolution and the founding of the U.S. Republic upended the lives of men and women throughout the colonies. In a time of upheaval and uncertainty, they reinvented their lives, their communities, and their vision of the world.
Drawing from the pathbreaking scholarship published by the Omohundro Institute over the past fifty years, these essays reflect on the experiences and legacies of the struggle for American independence, from the first inklings of the imperial crisis through the war's global aftershocks.
Contributors include David Armitage, Christopher Leslie Brown, Katherine Carté, Eliga H. Gould, Woody Holton, Rhys Isaac, Michael J. Jarvis, Maya Jasanoff, Linda K. Kerber, Cynthia Kierner, Michael A. McDonnell, Johann N. Neem, Mary Beth Norton, Robert G. Parkinson, Benjamin Quarles, John A. Ruddiman, Manisha Sinha, and Alfred F. Young.
