DESCRIPTION:At the time of the American Revolution (1765–83)\, the Briti
 sh Empire had colonies in India\, Africa\, the Caribbean\, the Pacific\, C
 anada\, Ireland\, and Gibraltar. The thirteen rebellious American colonies
  accounted for half of the total number of provinces in the British world 
 in 1776. What of the loyal half? Why did some of Britain’s subjects feel
  so aggrieved that they wanted to establish a new system of government\, w
 hile others did not rebel? In this authoritative history\, Trevor Burnard 
 and Andrew Jackson O’Shaughnessy show that understanding the long-term c
 auses of the American Revolution requires a global view.\nSpeakers:\nAndre
 w O'Shaughnessy (University of Virginia)
