Best Books About the American Revolution - Page 2

Since I agree with Alan Taylor that the War for Independence was part of a larger continental and global upheaval, I have included books covering the French and Indian War, The Seven Years War, the writing of the constitution, and the development of political parties and factions in America up to 1800.
