  The War for Independence promised liberty, the opportunity for a better life, and the excitement of the battlefield. It also brought disappointment, misery, and mourning. This book presents essays that investigate the diverse experiences of Americans from North to South, coast to backcountry, and white townsfolk to African American slaves.
