Revolutionary War Almanac by John C Fredriksen
With the possible exception of the Civil War, no other period in American history rivals the Revolution in importance. Originating in 1775 as disorganized, local violence over rights and taxes, it quickly escalated into full-blown armed conflict. By the time the Treaty of Paris was signed in 1783 - after six years of war - a new nation had emerged. Offering a day-by-day chronology of the people and events important to the American Revolution, Revolutionary War Almanac provides an up-close look at this historic time. The A-to-Z dictionary covers people, battles, and other exciting details. More than 130 maps, photographs, and illustrations pair with a detailed index, a bibliography, cross-references, and a chronology to make this reference more accessible than any other.
John C. Fredriksen holds a Ph.D. in American history from Providence College. He works as a freelance writer and researcher, and is the author of American Military Leaders and Facts On File's Biographical Dictionary of Modern World Leaders.
