Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book argues that the American colonies were not as discontented as many of the earlier histories have let on. The author demonstrates that the colonies had many conflicts with the British government long before the Stamp Act of 1765. Beginning in the early 1670s, the colonies argued with Parliament over trade laws. By the 1690s, they began to question the authority of the laws made by the British government. In the 1700s, some colonies began to issue their own paper money, and to counter that, the British Parliament passed a law to attempt to regulate paper money issued by the colonies. The author believes that the Stamp Act of 1765 was an event that irritated tensions between the colonies and the British government to such an extent that they boiled over into the American Revolution. The book presents a compelling narrative of the evolution of power struggles in early America and the lead-up to the Revolution, challenging a common historical narrative of American history.
