About the book
"On April 19, 1775, the American Revolution began at the Old North Bridge in Concord, Massachusetts. The Minutemen and Their World is Robert A. Cross's subtle and detailed reconstruction of the lives and community of this special place, and a compelling interpretation of the American Revolution as a social movement. This twenty-fifth anniversary edition includes a new foreword by Alan Taylor and a new afterword by the author."--BOOK JACKET.
