The American Revolution: A Historical Guidebook by Frances H. Kennedy

Publisher: Oxford University Press (June 10, 2014)

In 1996, Congress commissioned the National Park Service to compile a list of sites and landmarks connected with the American Revolution that it deemed vital to preserve for future generations. Some of these sites are well known–Bunker Hill, Valley Forge, Fort Ticonderoga–and in no danger of being lost; others less so– Blackstock’s Plantation in South Carolina or Bryan’s Station in Kentucky–and more vulnerable. But all are central to the story of our nation’s fight for independence. From battlefields to encampments, meeting houses to museums, these places offer us a chance to rediscover the remarkable men and women who founded this nation and to recognize the relevance of not just what they did, but where they did it.
