    One of the half dozen most important books ever written about the American Revolution.--New York Times Book Review

    "During the nearly two decades since its publication, this book has set the pace, furnished benchmarks, and afforded targets for many subsequent studies. If ever a work of history merited the appellation 'modern classic,' this is surely one.--William and Mary Quarterly

    "[A] brilliant and sweeping interpretation of political culture in the Revolutionary generation.--New England Quarterly

    "This is an admirable, thoughtful, and penetrating study of one of the most important chapters in American history.--Wesley Frank Craven
