This volume profiles a dozen British men and women, who, for varying reasons, opposed the policy of the British government towards its 13 colonies before and during the American Revolution. Their actions helped prepare the way for the recognition of the United States as an independent nation.
Dr. Jerome R. Reich received his Ph.D. from the University of Chicago and is professor of history at Chicago State University. His special field of expertise is the study of protest movements and rebellions of the colonial period. He is the author of Jacob Leisler's Rebellion: A Study of Democracy in New York, 1664-1720; Colonial America; and numerous textbooks and articles on United States, African American, and world history. This volume is the culmination of his research on conflicting political ideologies current in England and America during the second half of the eighteenth century and those English individuals who attempted-albeit unsuccessfully-to reconcile them.
