520    Before there could be a revolution, there was a rebellion;
       before patriots, there were insurgents. Challenging and 
       displacing decades of received wisdom, T. H. Breen's 
       strikingly original book explains how ordinary Americans-
       most of them members of farm families living in small 
       communities-were drawn into a successful insurgency 
       against imperial authority. This is the story of our 
       national political origins that most Americans do not 
       know. It is a story of rumor, charity, vengeance, and 
       restraint. American Insurgents, American Patriots reminds 
       us that revolutions are violent events. They provoke 
       passion and rage, a willingness to use violence to achieve
       political ends, a deep sense of betrayal, and a strong 
       religious conviction that God expects an oppressed people 
       to defend their rights. The American Revolution was no 
       exception.A few celebrated figures in the Continental 
       Congress do not make for a revolution. It requires tens of
       thousands of ordinary men and women willing to sacrifice, 
       kill, and be killed. Breen not only tells the history of 
       these ordinary Americans but, drawing upon a wealth of 
       rarely seen documents, restores their primacy to America's
       road to independence. Mobilizing two years before the 
       Declaration of Independence, American insurgents in all 
       thirteen colonies concluded that resistance to British 
       oppression required organized violence against the state. 
       They channeled popular rage through elected committees of 
       safety and observation, which before 1776 were the heart 
       of American resistance. American Insurgents, American 
       Patriots is the stunning account of their insurgency, 
       without which there would have been no independent 
       republic as we know it.
