From the award-winning team behind The Civil War, Baseball, Jazz, and The Roosevelts comes a richly illustrated, human-centered history of America’s founding struggle—expanding on the landmark PBS series airing in November 2025.

This sweeping volume explores the Revolution not only through the words of the Founding Fathers but also through the experiences of ordinary soldiers, women, African Americans, Native Americans, and Loyalists. Historian Geoffrey C. Ward, alongside essays by leading scholars, presents the Revolution as both a fight for independence and a world-changing conflict that reshaped nations and inspired movements across the globe.

Lavishly illustrated with historical art, documents, maps, and newly commissioned works, The American Revolution offers a vivid, bottom-up portrait of a nation’s birth and the enduring questions of liberty and democracy that continue to define it.
