Excerpt from The Colonial Merchants and the American Revolution, 1763-1776
A greater number of investigations of the American revolutionary epoch have been made in the last three or four decades than in all the preceding years. This dili gence has been the outgrowth of the modern spirit of historical research and has been productive of results which completely discredit the simple formulae by which the earlier historians explained the colonial revolt. In the light of these studies it is now almost universally agreed that the revolutionary movement was the product of a complexity of forces, governmental and personal, British and colonial, social, economic, geographical and religious. No definitive history of the American Revol ution can be written until it becomes possible to appraise each one of these factors at its true value.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the intricate tapestry of the American Revolution, moving beyond simplistic explanations to explore the complex web of forces that fueled the colonial revolt. It sheds light on the multifaceted nature of the revolution, encompassing governmental policies, personal motivations, and the interplay of British and colonial interests. Social, economic, geographic, and religious factors are all meticulously examined, offering a comprehensive understanding of this pivotal period in American history. The author places particular emphasis on the role of colonial merchants, both witting and unwitting, in the events leading to American independence. The narrative traces their involvement in non-importation agreements, highlighting the impact of these economic measures on revolutionary sentiment. By drawing parallels with similar policies employed in the early nineteenth century, the book reveals enduring patterns in American political and economic thought. This exploration extends beyond the actions of merchants to encompass the evolution of the radical party, its shifting strategies, and its diverse membership. The book challenges the notion of a singular revolutionary movement, positing instead the existence of two distinct movements, each with its own characteristics, operating in the northern and southern colonies. Through meticulous analysis of events in individual provinces, the author unveils the regional dynamics that shaped the course of the American Revolution. Ultimately, this book offers a nuanced understanding of the forces that propelled the American colonies toward independence, underscoring the pivotal role of economic factors and the complex interplay between merchants, radicals, and the British government.
