| Summary/Abstract |
John Adams wrote to Thomas Jefferson that the 'real revolution' took plae in the minds of the people, not just a few select leaders. Following this idea, the author relates American independence with war elephants charging at a crumbling fort in India and even the high stakes of gamblers in Scotland.
Provides a thought-provoking account and a new perspective on how America came into being and is packed with dramatic events and battle scenes, archival prints, engravings, maps and portraits.
