Resistance, Politics, and the American Struggle for Independence, 1765-1775

As independence leader and US President John Adams wrote: “A history of military operations…is not a history of the American Revolution….The revolution was in the minds and hearts of the people, and [was] substantially effected before hostilities commenced.” This volume analyzes the extensive nature of American nonviolent resistance to colonial rule.

Walter H. Conser, Jr., Ronald M. McCarthy, David J. Toscano and Gene Sharp
