This is a study of the formulation of British policy towards the
American colonies during the crucial period between the Boston Tea
Party of December 1773 and the American Declaration of Independence
in July 1776. It is set against the background both of British
public opinion and of the developing resistance movement in
America. Peter Thomas examines the constraints on British
policy-making, and analyses the failure of the colonists either to
respond to British overtures or to produce positive proposals of
their own. He shows how the crisis escalated as the Americans moved
from constitutional demands to a military response, and finally
took the decision to separate from Britain. Tea Party to
Independence is a scholarly and comprehensive exploration of one of
the most important phases of American history. It completes
Professor Thomas's acclaimed study of British relations with the
American colonies, begun in British Politics and the Stamp Act
Crisis 1763-1767 (Clarendon Press, 1975) and The Townshend Duties
Crisis 1767-1773 (Clarendon Press, 1987).
