Description

The 1760s were a period of great agitation in the American colonies.

The policies implemented by the British resulted in an outcry from the Americans that inaugurated the radical ideas leading to the Revolution in 1775.

John Dickinson led the way in the "war of ink" between America and Britain, which saw over 1,000 pamphlets and essays written both for and against British policy.

King George III, the new British monarch, wrote extensively on the role of Britain in the colonial world and sought to find a middle way between the quickly rising feelings on both sides of the debate.

This book tells the story of this radical decade as it occurred in writing, drawing from primary sources and rarely seen exchanges.
