The 13 American Colonies had many reasons to begin the Revolutionary War. From the Boston Tea Party to the Intolerable Acts, they felt it was time for independence. Read more about the conflict between the colonists and Great Britain and the events that led up to the American Revolution.
...does a good job of outlining in a clear way the key events that led up to the Revolutionary War - beginning with the tensions left over from the French and Indian Wars and ending with the the Boston Tea Party and the Boston Massacre. Broken down into five easy to follow chapters, it is an engaging and informative introduction to the Revolutionary War. . . .this is a fresh take on a well-covered topic and would be a welcome addition to the 900s.-- "SWON Library Consortium, Ohio"
