New York Times bestselling historian H.W. Brands offers a fresh and dramatic narrative of the American Revolution that shows it to be more than a fight against the British, but also a violent battle among neighbors forced to choose sides, Loyalist and Patriot.

Brands reminds us that before America could win its revolution against Britain, the Patriots had to win a bitter civil war against their sons and neighbors.
