Liberty! The American Revolution brings to life one of ì the most important and compelling stories in our country's ì history: the struggle for independence and the birth of the ì American nation. Historian and novelist Thomas Fleming's gripping ì narrative captures the high drama of the revolutionary years and ì the unyielding courage and political genius of the men and women ì who imagined a new set of political possibilities for mankind - ì laying the foundation for the identity and character of the ì American people in the process. The companion volume to the PBS ì television series of the same name, Liberty! is illustrated with ì more than 200 full color paintings and photographs, illuminating ì the revolutionary period as never before. Most important, ì Liberty! traces the evolution of the ideals that inspired ì a generation of Americans to struggle against Britain - then the ì most powerful nation in the world - to establish the free society ì and democratic system that is so inherently and uniquely ì American. A remarkable work that surges with human drama, it is a ì book that every American family will read and treasure for ì decades to come.
