The Bancroft Prize–winning classic of American history now in a revised and expanded edition with a new preface and afterword by the author. On April 19, 1775, the American Revolution began at the Old North Bridge in Concord, Massachusetts. The “shot heard round the world” catapulted this sleepy New England town into the height of revolutionary fervor, and Concord went on to become the intellectual capital of the new republic. The town—future home to Emerson, Thoreau, and Hawthorne—soon came to symbolize devotion to liberty, intellectual freedom, and the stubborn integrity of rural life. In The Minutemen and Their World, Robert A. Gross has written a remarkably subtle and detailed reconstruction of the lives and community of this special place, and a compelling interpretation of the American Revolution as a social movement.

"Employing precise geographical information system (GIS) mapping of land ownership and land use, Donahue describes how the land was settled and how mixed husbandry was developed in Concord. By reconstructing several farm neighborhoods and following them through many generations, he reveals a diverse sustainable farming system of tillage, orchards, pastures, hay meadows, and woodlots that required careful management of soil and water. Donahue concludes that ecological degradation came to Concord only later, when nineteenth-century economic and social forces undercut the environmental balance that earlier colonial farmers had nurtured."--BOOK JACKET.

Sinclair Street Publishing is proud to present Douglas Sabin's masterful work on the battles of Lexington and Concord, April 19, 1775: A Historiographical Study. Described by noted historian David Hackett Fischer (Paul Revere's Ride) as "indispensable," Sabin's work reconstructs each phase of the opening battle of the American Revolution, drawing from a rich variety of primary and secondary sources. "What has always been lacking in the historical accounts of the clashes of April 19, 1775, is an objective, detailed account of the entire battle. Too often, the historical works have been either too brief or were written by amateur historians from a local point of view. The account contained in this historiographical study will provide a more complete and objective view of the American Revolution's opening battle." -Author's introduction ..". Sabin's work is] a major study, historical as well as historiographical, of the battles...For many aspects of its subject, this is the most full and careful investigation. It is an indispensable work for serious students of the battles of Lexington and Concord]." -David Hackett Fischer, Paul Revere's Ride
