Excellent text for students of Revolutionary America
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
This text provides an introductory insight into the life of an eighteenth century American. Risjord combines detailed comment with a listing of relevant sources. It is an excellent springboard for further study and has been of infinite use in my studies. It is well-structured, adopts an elementary tone and is easy to use. It is different from other texts in that it encompasses the revolutionary era, birth of the constitution and ascendancy of Jeffersonian Republicanism. Even for those not studying the era it is a good read.
