I recommend Thomas Kidd’s God of Liberty. Below you can check out 5 books he recommends on the American Revolution.
For the Fourth of July, here are five compelling books on the American Revolution. A few caveats: these are all books written by academic historians for a popular audience. I’m not including books on the Revolution by journalists and other writers, though there are many excellent ones, such as Ron Chernow’s biographies of Alexander Hamilton and George Washington. I’m not including primary sources, just books by contemporary historians. And need I mention that I am not including my own books??
