First edition of this classic historical novel about the American Revolution. Octavo, original publisher’s half-cloth. Presentation copy, inscribed by the author on the title page, “To Dan, All the Best! Jeff Shaara June 4 2001.” Fine in a very good dust jacket.
Jeff Shaara’s 'Rise to Rebellion' is a meticulously researched historical novel that chronicles the ideological and political developments leading to the American Revolution. As the first volume in a two-part series, the novel explores the years between the Boston Massacre and the Declaration of Independence through the perspectives of influential figures such as John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, and George Washington. Shaara, known for his narrative-driven approach to military and political history, builds on the legacy of his father, Michael Shaara, author of the Pulitzer Prize–winning 'The Killer Angels'. With 'Rise to Rebellion', Jeff Shaara continues his commitment to historically grounded fiction that humanizes iconic figures while illuminating the broader socio-political forces at play.
