"David Ramsay's premier work of American historiography is now
available for the first time in a well-edited reprint. Lester
Cohen's foreword is an invaluable guide."--Arthur H. Shaffer,
University of MissouriDavid Ramsay's "History of the American
Revolution" appeared in 1789 during an enthusiastic celebration of
nationhood. It is the first American national history written by an
American revolutionary and printed in America. Ramsay, a well-known
Federalist, was an active participant in many of the events of the
period and a member of the Continental Congress from South
Carolina.Ramsay discusses the events and ideas of the American
Revolution (from the outbreak of turbulence in the 1760s to the
onset of Washington's administration) and makes an ardent
Federalist defense of the Constitution of 1787.Based on the
original and authorized 1789 version, this is the first new modern
edition of the work.Lester H. Cohen taught history and American
Studies at Purdue University.
