Publisher's Summary
The American Revolution by Richard Snowden is a book published in 1903 that provides a comprehensive account of the political and military events of the American Revolution, from the Stamp Act of 1765 to the Treaty of Paris in 1783.
Snowden emphasizes the role of liberty and democracy in motivating the colonists to seek independence from Great Britain, while also examining social and economic factors that shaped the Revolution. The book's writing style uses the Biblical language of King James, which was popular at the time and suggests solemn attention to the listener.
As an original work published shortly after the Revolution's success, Snowden's book reflects the solemnity with which the first independent Americans viewed their Revolution as an act blessed by God, containing providential inspiration and interventions that contributed to its success.
