Summary
"[Steven Rosswurm] writes a fascinating history of the American Revolution from the perspective of Philadelphia's 'Lower Sort' within the overlapping context of power,class relations, and wartime service in the patriot militia. He posits a transformation in consciousness of the lower sort attributable in large part to the revolutionary experience, a short term politicization of a previously excluded lower class constituency, and an unsuccessful effort to realize a true social revolution within the confines of the political revolt against Great Britain." [from a review of this book by Thomas P. Slaughter of Rutgers University in the "American Historical Review"]
