Review
Praise for the 2001 edition:
"A tour de force...Ray Raphael has probably altered the way in which future historians will see events."
The Sunday Times (London)
The unique value of Raphael's work lies in its mining, from extant primary sources, of the extraordinary recollections of ordinary witnesses to history.”
Booklist
The nervy energy of this People’s History is an arresting antidote to the air of self-satisfied triumphalism that so many Americans casually assume each July Fourth.”
Fresh Air (NPR)
A cracking good read Ray Raphael writes about the American Revolution as if he had been in the thick of it. His no-nonsense approach and style clarify the big issues and reveal the personal dimensions. This is truly a history of the people for the people.”
Roy Porter, author of Enlightenment
Raphael uses his considerable gifts as a writer [to weave] a tapestry that uses individual experiences to illustrate the larger stories of social groups.”
Los Angeles Times Book Review
