Excerpt from Liberty's Ordeal You will understand that the fiction of a conclave, in Part I., was introduced for the sole reason that it enabled me to present, more briefly, and more clearly, than I could have done by any other expedient, my view of the motives and designs of the rebel leaders in attempt ing the destruction of the Union. No further merit is claimed for it. On the contrary, I perceive very plainly that, artistically viewed, it is open to unfavora ble criticism. It is unquestionable that many of our public servants, whom I have not named, have, during the contest, in the exhibition of high qualities, fully equalled many others of whom I have made commendatory mention. Dis tributive justice, in a work of this kind, would be eminently desirable, if it were possible. Of course it is out of the question. So far as I have gone, I have endeavored to act justly. I have bestowed neither praise, nor censure, where I did not believe it richly deserved. But enough. This, with all its faults is the best offering that I can make the Republic at present.

It is often said that the American Revolution was a conservative revolution, but in many parts of the British colonies the Revolution was anything but conservative. This book follows the Revolution in Pennsylvania's backcountry through the experiences of eighteen men and women who lived in Northampton County during these years of turmoil. Fox's account will startle many readers for whom the Revolution symbolizes the high-minded pursuit of liberty. In 1774, Northampton County was the second largest of Pennsylvania's eleven counties, comprising more than 2,500 square miles, three towns (Allentown, Bethlehem, and Easton), and some 15,000 people. When the Revolution broke out, militias took control. Frontier justice replaced the rule of law as zealous patriots preoccupied themselves not with fighting the British but with seizing local political power and persecuting their pacifist neighbors. Sweet Land of Liberty reawakens the Revolution in Northampton County with sketches of men and women caught up in it. Seldom is this story told from the vantage point of common folks, let alone those in the backcountry. In Fox's hands, we see in these individuals an altogether more disturbing Revolution than we have ever reckoned with before.

NATIONAL BOOK CRITICS CIRCLE AWARD WINNER This groundbreaking book offers the first global history of the loyalist exodus to Canada, the Caribbean, Sierra Leone, India, and beyond. At the end of the American Revolution, sixty thousand Americans loyal to the British cause fled the United States and became refugees throughout the British Empire. Liberty’s Exiles tells their story. This surprising new account of the founding of the United States and the shaping of the post-revolutionary world traces extraordinary journeys like the one of Elizabeth Johnston, a young mother from Georgia, who led her growing family to Britain, Jamaica, and Canada, questing for a home; black loyalists such as David George, who escaped from slavery in Virginia and went on to found Baptist congregations in Nova Scotia and Sierra Leone; and Mohawk Indian leader Joseph Brant, who tried to find autonomy for his people in Ontario. Ambitious, original, and personality-filled, this book is at once an intimate narrative history and a provocative analysis that changes how we see the revolution’s “losers” and their legacies.
