{"product_id":"the-cambridge-history-of-the-wim-klooster-9781108476034","title":"The Cambridge History of the Age of Atlantic Revolutions: Volume 1, the Enlightenment and the British Colonies","description":"Volume I offers an introduction to the Enlightenment, which served as the shared background for virtually all revolutionary turmoil, and the American Revolution, which inaugurated the Age of Revolutions. Beginning with a thorough introduction, the volume covers international rivalry, the importance of slavery, and the reformist mind-set that prevailed on the eve of the revolutionary era. It addresses the traditional argument on whether the Enlightenment truly caused revolutions, concluding that the reverse is more apt: revolutions helped create the Enlightenment as a body of thought. The volume continues with a regional and thematic assessment of the American Revolution, revealing how numerous groups in British America - including Black and indigenous people - pursued their own agendas and faced interests at odds with the principles of the revolution.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Wim Klooster\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1108476031\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781108476034\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/09\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 800\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.06h x 6.06w x 1.50d","brand":"Wim Klooster","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45064765899007,"sku":"9781108476034","price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b1d8007d-00f0-4a0e-9abf-7a1961736198.jpg?v=1712124963","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-cambridge-history-of-the-wim-klooster-9781108476034","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
