1775: The People's Revolution: The Definitive History for the 250th Anniversary

The war for independence didn't start with generals. It started with farmers.

As the nation commemorates the 250th Anniversary of the American Revolution, peel back the layers of myth to uncover the terrifying, inspiring truth of the conflict's first year.

This is the essential, ground-up history of 1775, detailing the chaos of the Siege of Boston, the brutality of Bunker Hill, and the desperate hours of Lexington and Concord. Unlike standard histories, this book places the focus squarely on the individuals who made the first, irreversible choices -- the blacksmiths, the doctors, and the messengers who risked summary execution to sound the alarm.
