"In fast-paced, crystal-clear prose, these four veteran historians quash not just seven myths about the American Revolution but dozens. If you think that slavery was inevitable, that British commanders were lazy nincompoops, or that Indigenous warriors were nothing more than British pawns, you will savor the challenge of Seven Myths of the American Revolution just as much as I did."-Woody Holton, University of South Carolina, author of Liberty Is Sweet: The Hidden History of the American Revolution (Simon & Schuster, 2021)

Review

"Jim Piecuch's Seven Myths of the American Revolution is ideally suited for use in college class rooms. It tackles some of the most common—and as it turns out totally incorrect—assumptions that the general public, and even some historians, have made about the era of the American Revolution. It covers all the bases, including analyses of political, social, and military history. Its sprightly and accessible prose will captivate readers, who will be delighted to learn that what they always thought was true was in fact not true at all. Very well researched, the book will easily win the approval of professors and students alike."—Sheila L. Skemp, University of Mississippi, author of First Lady of Letters: Judith Sargent Murray and the Struggle for Female Independence (University of Pennsylvania Press, 2009)
