How the Revolutionary War Began

The American colonists were fed up with British law. They refused to buy English goods. They formed a militia of tradesmen and farmers ready to fight at a moment's notice. Most importantly, they joined together. All 13 colonies sent representatives to decide whether they should form a new country. That group wrote the Declaration of Independence, the document that summed up a revolution.

Reviews for Liberty!: How the Revolutionary War Began

?This fine encyclopedia examines childbearing from nontechnical perspectives: social, political, psychological, artistic, etc....Rothman, a respected sociologist and author of several important books on pregnancy and motherhood, rejoices in the diversity of material....the book is handsomely printed on permanent paper, with a few black and white photographs and drawings. Highly recommended.?-CHOICE
