INTRODUCTION

1 Robert Middlekauff, The Glorious Cause: The American Revolution, 1763-1789 (New York: Oxford University Press, 1982); Edward Countryman, The American Revolution (New York: Hill and Wang, 1985); and Colin Bonwick, The American Revolution (London: Macmillan, 1991).
2 Countryman, The American Revolution, 274.
3 See George Otto Trevelyan, The American Revolution, 14 vols. (London: Longman, 1880-1914); Marcus Cunliffe, The Nation Takes Shape, 1789-1837 (Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1959); Esmond Wright, Fabric of Freedom, 1763-1800 (New York: Hill and Wang, 1961, revised 1978); and Michael J. Heale, The American Revolution (London: Methuen (Lancaster Pamphlets), 1986) for excellent examples of this tradition.
4 I have been influenced in adopting this approach by R.R. Palmer's classic work, The Age of Democratic Revolution: A Political History of Europe and America, 1760-1800, 2 vols. (Princeton: Princeton University Press, 1959-64).
5 Linda K. Kerber has called for a narrative of the Revolution written from the perspective of women. Linda K. Kerber, “'History Can Do it No Justice': Women and the Reinterpreatation of the American Revolution, ” in Ronald Hoffman and Peter J. Albert, eds., Women in the Age of the American Revolution (Charlottesville: University Press of Virginia, 1989), 63-99. Kerber, among others, has devoted a large part of her professional life writing just such a narrative. The same can also be done for African Americans and Native Americans. See Sylvia Frey, Water from the Rock: Black Resistance in a Revolutionary Age (Princeton: Princeton University Press, 1991) and Colin G. Calloway, The American Revolution in Indian Country (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1995).
6 In political terms, Native Americans were excluded from the revolutionary settlement. Their experiences are discussed in Chapter 4.

THE THIRTEEN COLONIES IN 1763

1 The classic account of this conflict-to which Pontiac owes his enduring, if inaccurate, historical reputation-is Francis Parkman, The Conspiracy of Pontiac and the Indian War after the Conquest of Canada, 2 vols. (Boston, 1851, repr. New York: Library of America, 1991). For more recent, and balanced, accounts see Howard H. Peckham, Pontiac and the Indian Uprising (Princeton: Princeton University Press, 1947, repr. 1994), and Francis Jennings, Empire of Fortune:
