The Oxford Handbook of the American Revolution introduces scholars,
students and generally interested readers to the formative event in
American history. In thirty-three individual essays, by
thirty-three authorities on the Revolution, the Handbook provides
readers with in-depth analysis of the Revolution's many sides,
ranging from the military and diplomatic to the social and
political; from the economic and financial, to the cultural and
legal. Its cast of characters ranges far, including ordinary
farmers and artisans, men and women, free and enslaved African
Americans, Indians, and British and American statesmen and military
leaders. Its geographic scope is equally broad. The Handbook offers
readers an American Revolution whose geo-political and military
impact ranged from the West Indies to the Mississippi Valley; from
the British Isles to New England and from Nova Scotia to Florida.
The American Revolution of the Handbook is, simply put, an event
that far transcended the boundaries of what was to become the
United States. In addition to a breadth of subject matter, the
Handbook offers a broad range of interpretive and methodological
approaches. Its authors include social historians, historians of
politics and institutions, cultural historians, historians of
diplomacy, imperial historians, ethnohistorians, and historians of
gender and sexuality. Instead of privileging a single or even
several interpretive perspectives, the Handbook attempts to capture
the full scope of current revolutionary-era scholarship. Nothing
comparable has been published in decades.
