Discover a Riveting Journey That Completely Transformed the World

What would truly compel ordinary farmers, merchants, and craftsmen to defy the most powerful empire on Earth?

• Our American Revolution for Beginners audiobook is written in a style and structure that makes listening and immersing yourself in history as enjoyable and captivating as possible. You'll witness the daring strategies, meet the real revolutionaries, and finally understand what pushed colonists to fight for independence.
• The complete Revolutionary story, heroes and hypocrites – Many history books glorify the Founding Fathers without examining the contradictions at the heart of the Revolution. Our audiobook examines American independence as it REALLY was, exploring how the fight for freedom coexisted with slavery, how women and enslaved people played pivotal roles often erased from textbooks, and how ordinary colonists risked everything for an idea that would reshape the world.

Inside, you'll finally discover:

• The true sparks that escalated from civil protest to full-scale war for independence, going far beyond simple taxes.
• How women, enslaved people, merchants, and farmers played pivotal, often overlooked, roles on and off the battlefield.
• The ground-level reality of legendary battles like Lexington & Concord, Bunker Hill, and Saratoga.
• Washington's strategic brilliance and sheer force of will that kept a ragtag army from collapsing.
• How the ideals and flaws of 1776 continue to define our politics, identity, and national conversation today.
• And much, much more!
