British Politics and the American Revolution

By Charles R. Ritcheson

The author deals with the fifteen years from 1763 to 1778. The period opened with an attempt by the British Government to reconstruct and reform the old British colonial system. It closed with the Carlisle Peace Commission and the Franco-American Alliance, which ended the possibility of imperial reorganization and insured the disruption of the old British Empire and the independence of the United States.
