Descripción del artículo del vendedor

Condition is AS NEW in a hard cover. DJ is AS NEW. Seeds of Discontent: The Deep Roots of the American Revolution, 1650-1750 is a book by J. Revell Carr that argues the American Revolution's causes go back further than the familiar events of the 1760s. The book explores how a century of what Carr calls "British disrespect, mismanagement, and exploitation" created a foundation for revolution, citing examples like the suspension of colonial legislatures, revocation of charters, interference with trade, and unfair taxation before the French and Indian War. Long-term causes: The book posits that the American Revolution was not a sudden outbreak but a culmination of long-term grievances that developed over a century, from 1650 to 1750. British mismanagement: According to the book, Britain shifted from a period of "benign neglect" to one of greater control, which included imposing taxes, restricting trade through the Navigation Acts, and revoking colonial charters. Colonial resentment: These policies, coupled with other issues like the impressment of American citizens by the Royal Navy and the perceived indifference to colonial vulnerability, bred resentment in the colonists, according to this Amazon review. Demonstration of colonial capability: Early rebellions, such as the Boston rebellion of 1689, showed that colonists were willing to risk their lives against English authority, a sentiment that grew over time, notes this Amazon review. Specific example of a catalyst: The outrage over Britain returning Louisbourg to France after the 1745 conquest is cited as a key event that fueled further frustration, notes this Amazon review.…
