Bailyn's Ideological Origins of the American Revolution is a classic historical work, which adds significantly to our understanding of North American culture and society on the eve of the Revolution and the ways in which the colony's inhabitants were already on a path toward participatory democracy in the decades preceding the rebellion. An excellent, relevant, and enjoyable read for anyone interested in American history of the period.
