This is the first book I’ve ever read that covered the American Revolution without talking about the founding fathers at length. instead it focused on the common man.
I really enjoyed hearing the words of so many regular everyday people and how they viewed the day they lived in.
It was great to see the diversity of thought around the revolution and that the reasons so many got involved were as diverse as the people themselves.
probably the best book I’ve read about the lives of normal people during the revolution.
Great perspective
