What is Landmarks of the American Revolution (American Landmarks) about?

<p>In 1775, on the green of Lexington, Massachusetts, 2,200 British minutemen fired upon the local militia — seventy colonial farmers and village artisans in total. The British suffered staggering losses: half of their troops died. And so began the American Revolution. In <b>Landmarks of the</b> <b>American Revolution</b>, fourteen key sites and numerous secondary locales show with rich detail and fascinating anecdotes where the War of Independence took place. In addition to the Lexington-Concord Battle Site, historian Gary Nash features Independence Hall in Philadelphia where the Declaration of Independence was signed; John Paul Jones House in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, where the out-of-work, 28-year-old immigrant who went on to become one of the new nation's naval heroes lived; Peyton Randolph House in Williamsburg, Virginia, a place emblematic of African Americans' role in the war; and many other significant places of the American Revolution. A dynamic journey through history that reveals all sides in the war — loyalists, patriots, African American, Native American, women, British — <b>Landmarks of the American Revolution</b> brings to life how a new nation came to be.</p>
