Winds of change were blowing far beyond the shores of the nascent United States of America, whether in the debating clubs of Edinburgh, where women were demanding happiness along with men, or the brutal sugar plantations of the Caribbean, where enslaved Africans were rising up in rebellion.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this authoritative revisionist history, Sarah M. S. Pearsall restores the shock and drama of that epoch-defining moment, revealing how the fires of change that sparked the American Revolution were igniting all around the world. From St Kitts to Kolkata, Ghana to Guangzhou, all kinds of people, not just the men declaring independence in Philadelphia, asserted their rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs we approach the 250th anniversary of the Revolution, \u003ci\u003eFreedom Round the Globe \u003c\/i\u003etells a story the world needs to hear, of the fraught origins of a nation that by turns perplexes, fascinates and horrifies us. It is a story of global transformation and revolutionary fervour, of triumph as well as tragedy, and of the insurgents, lovers, and dreamers who dared to imagine better societies.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56368991568245,"sku":"9781529093926","price":16.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781529093926.jpg?v=1763551639","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781529093926","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
