Tyrannical Individualism Ep. 228


Sam and I are starting a book club. 

We will be discussing books that we have chosen to read together. 

First Book is the "True History of the American Revolution" by Sydney George Fisher. 

Amazon link: https://amzn.to/3y4raj8

Free online: https://archive.org/details/truehisto...

In our first episode we will be discussing the book, its origins, why it was written and when. The first few pages. Critical response. 

Next episode to give us and you some time to read it we will cover the first half of the book and discuss our thoughts. 

This is the description of the book from Good Reads: 

"The purpose of this history of the Revolution is to use the original authorities rather more frankly than has been the practice with our historians. They appear to have thought it advisable to omit from their narratives a great deal which, to me, seems essential to a true picture. I cannot feel satisfied with any description of the Revolution which treats the desire for independence as a sudden thought, and not a long growth and development, or which assumes that every detail of the conduct of the British government was absurdly stupid, even from its own point of view, and that the loyalists were few in numbers and their arguments not worth considering. I cannot see any advantage in not describing in their full meaning and force the smuggling, the buying of laws from the governors, and other irregular conduct in the colonies which led England to try to remodel them as soon as the fear of the French in Canada was removed..." - S.G. Early Conditions And Causes. Smuggling, Rioting, and Revolt against Control. Parliament Passes a Stamp Tax and Repeals It. Parliament Taxes Paint, Paper, and Glass and then Abandons Taxation. The Tea Episode. The Final Argument. The Rights of Man. A Reign of Terror for the Loyalists. The Real Intention as to Independence. The Continental Congress. The Situation in England. Triumphant Toryism. Lexington and the Number of the Loyalists. The Second Continental Congress and the Protests of the Loyalists. Bunker Hill. The Character and Condition of the Patriot Army. The Attack upon Canada. The Evacuation of Boston and the Declaration of Independence. The Battle of Long Island. The Battles of Trenton and Princeton. The Battle of Brandywine. The Battle of Saratoga and Its Results. Clinton Begins the Wearing-out Process. Arnold, the Loyalist, Tries to Save the British Empire. Cornwallis Brings the War to an End at Yorktown.



Live streams will be done on Illegitimate Scholar Youtube When we first select the book. Then during and after reading. The specifics of these streams will be worked out over time. The finished episodes will also be put on audio on the Biting the Bullet feed.
