Collection: The American Revolution from a British Perspective, 1763–1783 Volumes Pamphlets for the Years, 1775-1776
In general, these pamphlets are produced by a variety of different factions from both Britain and America. The Americans opposed to the war on religious grounds are mainly those expressing sympathy for the ideas of John Wesley. The Americans who are in favour of war tend to support the American Continental Congress. There were British pamphlets, which supported the idea of forcibly teaching America to acquiesce, but there were a similar number of British pamphlets were either concerned about the impact of a war on commerce or just genuinely seeking reconciliation. One route to reconciliation being considered was permitting American representatives to sit in the British Parliament. Items that carry a greater potential historical significance are: ?An Account of the Battle Fought in America on the 23d of June, 1775?; ?Clark, John - Lt. of Marines. An Impartial and Authentic Narrative of The Battle Fought on the 17th of June 1775, Between His Britannic Majesty's Troops and The American Provincial Army?; and seven publications originating from the U.S. Continental Congress.
