The historian Edmund Morgan defined a revolution as a change in human affairs so traumatic that no one ever understands it, either at the time or thereafter. In this course, students will attempt to recover the experience of the revolutionary years in all their messy grandeur. We will ask what the major players-- Franklin, Adams, Jefferson, Washington, and others-- thought they were doing. How did the Revolution look and feel to an ordinary soldier in the Continental Army? Did Abigail Adams believe it was a sexual well as political revolution?
