The American Revolution was a war, but it was also a time, a span
of history, in which some people fought, but most just lived. They
thought, acted, worked, raised families, worshipped, built, sold,
bought, and tried to live as best they could in a time of hope,
anxiety, despair, loss, gain, and, above all, disruption. In the
Time of the Revolution is a popular, single-volume history of the
American Revolution, 1775 to 1783, an intensely active, exciting,
and critical span of time in North America. It began with a
lopsided skirmish at Lexington, Massachusetts, culminated
militarily in a major amphibious campaign mounted by a large
Franco-American army against British army and naval forces at
Yorktown, Virginia in 1781, and then passed through two more years
of desultory combat and cruel fights between diehard Loyalists and
vengeful Patriots before ending in the Treaty of Paris. During
these eight years in an America that was a collection of young
towns on the edge of a vast wilderness, the break-up with the
mother country was the central fact of life.
