This revised and updated edition of the American Revolution offers an accessible and authoritative overview of the war that shaped a nation. From the first sparks of the revolution to the final treaty, this comprehensive visual history records the key battles, political tensions, and personal stories that shaped the United States.
Discover how events such as the Boston Massacre, the Declaration of Independence, and the surrender at Yorktown unfolded through vivid artistic depictions, testimonies, and timelines that provide clarity at every stage of the conflict.
Fully revised and updated, and produced in collaboration with the Smithsonian Institution, the American Revolution is packed with information about the course of the battle and significant locations, with detailed coverage of related topics such as the treatment of wounded soldiers and the experience of Native Americans, offering a rich and detailed account of one of the most controversial conflicts ever fought.
In this book, you will find:
- More than 500 images, including dramatic battle paintings and galleries of weapons, equipment, and other artifacts.
- First-hand accounts of the conflict from soldiers and civilians.
- Fascinating biographies of important figures – from George Washington to Alexander Hamilton.
- Detailed coverage of broader topics, such as contemporary political ideas and the war’s impact on the home front.
Scheduled for release in 2026, in anticipation of the 250th anniversary of the founding of the USA, alongside DK’s The American Civil War and The History of the USA Year by Year, this is the definitive guide to a defining period in world history.
