About this product

Product Information

Jeff Shaara dazzled readers with his bestselling novels Gods and Generals, The Last Full Measure , and Gone for Soldiers . Now the acclaimed author who illuminated the Civil War and the Mexican-American War brilliantly brings to life the American Revolution, creating a superb saga of the men who helped to forge the destiny of a nation. In 1770, the fuse of revolution is lit by a fateful command Fire as England's peacekeeping mission ignites into the Boston Massacre. The senseless killing of civilians leads to a tumultuous trial in which lawyer John Adams must defend the very enemy who has assaulted and abused the laws he holds sacred. The taut courtroom drama soon broadens into a stunning epic of war as King George III leads a reckless and corrupt government in London toward the escalating abuse of his colonies. Outraged by the increasing loss of their liberties, an extraordinary gathering of America's most inspiring characters confronts the British presence with the ideals that will change history. John Adams, the idealistic attorney devoted to the law, who rises to greatness by the power of his words . . . Ben Franklin, one of the most celebrated men of his time, the elderly and audacious inventor and philosopher who endures firsthand the hostile prejudice of the British government . . . Thomas Gage, the British general given the impossible task of crushing a colonial rebellion without starting an all-out war . . . George Washington, the dashing Virginian whose battle experience in the French and Indian War brings him the recognition that elevates him to command of a colonial army . . . and many other immortal names from the Founding Family of the colonial struggle - Abigail Adams, Thomas Jefferson, Joseph Warren, Samuel Adams, Richard Henry Lee - captured as never before in their full flesh-and-blood humanity. More than a powerful portrait of the people and purpose of the revolution, Rise to Rebellion is a vivid account of history's most pivotal events. The Boston Tea Party, the battles of Concord and Bunker Hill: all are recreated with the kind of breathtaking detail only a master like Jeff Shaara can muster. His most impressive achievement, Rise to Rebellion reveals with new immediacy how philosophers became fighters, ideas their ammunition, and how a scattered group of colonies became the United States of America.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!

  • Rise to Rebellion

    Jeff Shaara brings the past to life in all of his books. One of the best historians in publishing. I have purchased & retained ALL OF HIS WORK in my personal library & share with my students & my brothers in my SCV Camp in North Carolina. Prof. Tom

  • Simply Astounding

    I purchased this work because I had heard of the intense detail Jeff Shaara includes to create whole, real books. I was anything but disappointed. Mr. Shaara explores the realm of history in a way that is so real, so attentive to detail, that you could swear it came from the mouths of the people there. I was thoroughly engaged the whole time and found myself having read through the entire 500 pages in one sitting. It was that good.

  • Rise to Rebillion

    A great book on the revolution war. The book is the first volume of a two-part story of the american revolution. The book follows the time line from the first bloodshed in Boston, in March 1770, through the summer of 1776. I have the second book , it is also a great book. And a must for readers who are interested in the American Revolution. A must read.

  • Just did. Rise to Rebellion.

    Great look inside the mind and hearts of the foremost founding fathers.
