By Jeff Wallenfeldt

Book Overview

Many Americans buoy their national pride and patriotism in the tableau of the American Revolution, where the downtrodden rose up against taxation and rule from abroad to defeat one of the most powerful countries in the world. From the midnight ride of Paul Revere to the cold winter at Valley Forge, freedom was a right proudly won. This book investigates the important battles, speeches, and key players of this inspiring upsurge that ended in the creation of a new nation.
