From the Sons of Liberty to British reformers, Irish patriots,
French Jacobins, Haitian revolutionaries and American Democrats,
the greatest social movements of the Age of Atlantic Revolutions
grew as part of a common, interrelated pattern. In this new
transnational history, Micah Alpaugh demonstrates the connections
between the most prominent causes of the era, as they drew upon
each other's models to seek unprecedented changes in government. As
Friends of Freedom, activists shared ideas and strategies
internationally, creating a chain of broad-based campaigns that
mobilized the American Revolution, British Parliamentary Reform,
Irish nationalism, movements for religious freedom, abolitionism,
the French Revolution, the Haitian Revolution, and American party
politics. Rather than a series of distinct national histories,
Alpaugh shows how these movements jointly responded to the Atlantic
trends of their era to create a new way to alter or overthrow
governments: mobilizing massive social movements.
