Inevitable War for Independence? Analysis by Afrah Chowdhury is a document available to read on EtoBox.

As of 1770, the War for Independence was not inevitable. Tension between Britain and the colonies had increased from 1765 to 1770 due to acts like the Stamp Act, Townshend Acts, and unrest over taxation without representation. However, attitudes among colonists had changed and become more resistant to British rule during this period. While conflict seemed likely, independence was not assured, as peaceful resolution was still possible through compromise or concession.
