Creation of the American Republic, 1776-1787 by Gordon S. Wood, Institute of Early American History and Culture Staff

From the Publisher

One of the half dozen most important books ever written about the American Revolution.

New York Times Book Review
During the nearly two decades since its publication, this book has set the pace, furnished benchmarks, and afforded targets for many subsequent studies. If ever a work of history merited the appellation 'modern classic,' this is surely one.

William and Mary Quarterly
[A] brilliant and sweeping interpretation of political culture in the Revolutionary generation.

New England QuarterlyThis is an admirable, thoughtful, and penetrating study of one of the most important chapters in American history.
