"Of Liberty and Revolution" vividly re-creates the epic story of the American Revolution through the eyes of the members of the family of Marvin Griffith, a Massachusetts colonial lawmaker who wants London to respect the Americans' rights as British subjects. In the aftermath of the French and Indian War, the British Parliament passes a series of tax laws aimed at making the Americans pay for London protecting them from enemies of the British Empire. Because they have no representatives in Parliament, the Americans view these laws as violations of their rights as subjects of the Crown. The Americans' fury over these laws eventually set off the flames of the Revolution. Marvin's family becomes divided over the conflict as it brings about the American nation. Open this book and relive the drama of America's first civil war.
