Description: More than twenty years after the Bicentennial celebration, we remain fascinated with the American Revolutions -- both the parts of it we all know by heart and the revelations that continue to surface. The Complete Idiot's Guide to the American Revolution is a fascinating, fast-paced overview to the whole conflict, from its key events, such as the Boston Tea Party, to little-known facts about such major players as Washington, Jefferson, and Franklin. It also include details on the weaponry, the military strategies used at the time, and the roles played by Native Americans, African-Americans, and women. Copies of key documents and treaties from the period are also included, as are a chronology, a who's who, a glossary, and casualty reports.
