Compare A Short History of the American Revolution by James L Stokesbury, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

The first one-volume survey of the American Revolution that is both objective and comprehensive, this outstanding narrative history traces the growth of a conflict that inexorably set the American colonies on the road to independence. Offering a spirited chronicle of the war itself - the campaigns and strategies, the leaders on both sides, the problems of fielding and sustaining an army, and of maintaining morale - Stokesbury also brings the reader to the Peace of Paris in 1783 and into the miltarily exhausted, financially ruined yet victorious United States as it emerged to create a workable national system. | A Short History of the American Revolution by James L Stokesbury, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
