AMERICAN REVOLUTION CD
What do Mercy Otis Warren, Thomas Jefferson, Alexis de
Tocqueville, Samuel Adams, and Thomas Paine have in common? They all wrote about
the American Revolution and/or the Early Republic and their works are on the
same CD.
This CD includes the full text of The Rise, Progress and
Termination of the American Revolution . The original 3-volume work is 1317
pages long. Mercy wrote early drafts of this work near the time of the events
described, and completed the work about four years before its appeared in 1805.
She explains the delay as due to health problems, temporary bouts of blindness,
and grief at the death of her only son. James Otis (early advocate of the rights
of the colonies) was her brother, James Warren (speaker of the Massachusetts
House of Representatives) was her husband, Abigail and John Adams were close
friends and correspondents.
The CD also includes five plays that Mercy wrote during and
about the Revolution:

The Adulateur, a
five-act play, published in 1773
