'Struggle' useful highlight of events leading to war
1997
Overview
Although the struggle's outcome is already known to the reader, numerous opportunities for a different type of revolution, at different times and for different reasons present themselves. Historians offer varying opinions and interpretations on why the Revolution occurred, exactly when it started to develop in the minds of colonist, and what were the over-aching objectives of the Revolution's leaders. \"Struggle for Power\" dismisses the emphasis on ideological reasons as the root cause and offers an alternative explanation. Indeed, he believes that in 1775, the leaders of this revolt only knew what they were against - revenue generated through Parliamentary-declared taxes - and not what they were for. Only after the January 1776 publication of Thomas Paine's \"Common Sense\" did the colonies stress independence as a reason for revolting. The author states that the rapid population and economic growth of the colonies made a \"struggle\" inevitable, ideological and patriotic causes aside.
