Why was Philadelphia the seat of rebellion? Which great hero became a despised traitor? What did wearing a three-cornered hat mean in 1776?

• More than 250 full-color photographs and illustrations, with unique artifacts from the Smithsonian Institution
• Ready Reference section with at-a-glance chronology and maps outlining the story of the Revolution, from colonial times to 1783
