The Urban Crucible boldly reinterprets colonial life and the
origins of the American Revolution. Through a century-long history
of three seaport towns-Boston, New York, and Philadelphia-Gary Nash
discovers subtle changes in social and political awareness and
describes the coming of the revolution through popular collective
action and challenges to rule by custom, law and divine will. A
reordering of political power required a new consciousness to
challenge the model of social relations inherited from the past and
defended by higher classes. While retaining all the main points of
analysis and interpretation, the author has reduced the full
complement of statistics, sources, and technical data contained in
the original edition to serve the needs of general readers and
undergraduates.
