About This Item
US: Vintage, 1973. Good. An intellectual interpretation of the American revolution that raises it t o a new height of comprehensiveness and significance. A superbly detailed a ccount of the ideological escalation . . . that brought Americans to revolu tion." �Gordon S. Wood, New York Times Book ReviewIn this classic acco unt of the American revolution, Pauline Maier traces the step-by-step proce ss through which the extra-legal institutions of the colonial resistance mo vement assumed authority from the British. She follows the American Whigs a s they moved by stages from the organized resistance of the Stamp Act crisi s of 1765 through the non-importation associations of the late 1760s to the collapse of royal government after 1773, the implication of the king in a conspiracy against American liberties, and the consequent Declaration of In dependence. Professor Maier's great achievement is to explain how Americans came to contemplate and establish their independence, guided by principle, reason, and experience.
