America Goes to War: A Social History of the Continental Army
In AMERICA GOES TO WAR, Neimeyer separates fact from fiction, revealing for the first time who really served in the army during the Revolution and why. His conclusions are startling. Becasue the army relied primarily on those not connected to the new American aristocracy, the African Americans, Irish, Germans, Native Americans, laborers-for-hire, and free white men on the move who served in the army were only rarely altruistic patriots driven by a vision of liberty and national unity.
