American Lives And Times: The Revolutionary War - From Lexington & Concord To Valley Forge

American Lives and Times, The Revolutionary War, from Lexington & Concord to Valley Forge, is an anthology of selected articles and advertisements from contemporary newspapers, arranged chronologically, that tells the story of the Revolutionary War from April, 1775 to December, 1777. The colonists demanded liberty from Great Britain, not independence. However, increasing British military and commercial measures to subdue the Americans, and the publication of Thomas Paine's pamphlet "Common Sense", changed the argument to one of total separation from England.This anthology follows the story of the people, places and battles of American history as that history was being made.
