A People's History Of The American Revolution: How Common People Shaped the Fight for Independence
Author(s): Ray Raphael
A People's History Of The American Revolution draws upon diaries, personal letters and other Revolutionary-era treasures, weaving a thrilling, 'you are there' narrative - 'a tapestry that uses individual experiences to illustrate the larger stories' (Los Angeles Times Book Review). In the trademark style of Howard Zinn, Raphael shifts the focus away from George Washington and Thomas Jefferson to the slaves they owned, the natives they displaced and the men and boys who did the fighting.
