This work is the result of an altogether new and original treatment of the American Revolution. The outward history of that period has been many times written, and is now, by a new school of American historians, being freshly re-written in the light of larger evidence, and after a more disinterested and judicial method. In the present work, for the first time in a systematic and complete way, is set forth the inward history of our Revolution,—the history of its ideas, its spiritual moods, its passions, as these uttered themselves at the time in the writings of the two parties of Americans who either promoted or resisted that great movement.
