D. - The Cause The American Revolution And Its Discontents 1773 - 1783 - Paperback","description":"Binding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\nDescription: For Pulitzer Prize winning historian Joseph J. Ellis The Cause marks the culmination of a lifetime of engagement with the founding era completing a trilogy of books that began with Founding Brothers. Here Ellis countering popular histories that romanticize the Spirit of 76, demonstrates through evocative profiles of British loyalists slaves Native Americans and soldiers uncertain of what was being founded (Christopher Borrelli Chicago Tribune) that the rebels fought not for a nation but under the mantle of The Cause a mutable conveniently ambiguous principle all but destined to give rise to the warring factions of later American history. Combining action - packed tales of North American military campaigns with characteristically trenchant insight The Cause deftly foreshadows all the issues that would complicate America's trajectory (Richard Stengel New York Times Book Review) forcing us to finally reconsider the story we have long told ourselves about our origins as a people and as a nation. At the intersection of his expertise and our need for coherence about our national founding arrives historian Joseph J. Ellis . Ellis is no apologist but he is a chronicler of the entire revolution its best aspirations its worst contradictions and its ongoing dilemmas.
