Recenzii

A convincing account, written with unusual wit and style of the manner in which colonial American self-righteousness and self-denials contributed to a change of sensibility that prepared the way for Independence.
This is a wonderful book, exploiting materials and problems rarely considered in the same frame as the origins of the revolution....An exuberant romp through known and unknown corridors of eighteenth-century culture and politics, this book will entertain and challenge all historians of Revolutionary America.
Withington's book is imaginative and carefully argued and makes a major contribution to the ongoing debate over the meaning of American republicanism.
This book happens to be a particularly bright and imaginative exemplar of that genre which repays a careful reading with many original and important insights into our revolutionary past.
