Preparing this view.
Francis Jennings
Presents a realistic picture of a privileged elite who are dreaming of empires, who clone their own empire from the British. Shows that the colonists from the first intended to conquer American Indians. Some colonists bought African as slaves and rigidly ruled over them. Interprets the revolutionary rhetoric about liberty and virtue as war propaganda.
