This book tells the origins of the American Revolution from a new perspective. The author carefully researches primary sources from the United Kingdom and the United States. It reproduces the sharp conflicts between the British authorities and the North American expatriates in the three years before the outbreak of the American Revolution in a fair tone (1772-1775). It also analyzes the roles played by well-known figures in British politics and economics, such as Benjamin Franklin, John Hancock, and Thomas Hutchinson, during this period.
