Whig History & the Intellectual Origins of the American Revolution
First published in 1966, this text deals with American conceptions and uses of history in the constitutional debate with Britain preceding the American Revolution.
In a landmark work, a leading scholar of the eighteenth century uses diaries, personal correspondence, newspapers, and legislative records to examine the ways in which an understanding of the nature of history influenced the thinking of the Founding Fathers.
