Book Description

The first exploration of the profound and often catastrophic impact the American Revolution had on the rest of the world

While the American Revolution led to domestic peace and liberty, it ultimately had a catastrophic global impact--it strengthened the British Empire and led to widespread persecution and duress. From the opium wars in China to anti-imperial rebellions in Peru to the colonization of Australia--the inspirational impact the American success had on fringe uprisings was outweighed by the influence it had on the tightening fists of oppressive world powers.

Here Matthew Lockwood presents, in vivid detail, the neglected story of this unintended revolution. It sowed the seeds of collapse for the preeminent empires of the early modern era, setting the stage for the global domination of Britain, Russia, and the United States. Lockwood illuminates the forgotten stories and experiences of the communities and individuals who adapted to this new world in which the global balance of power had been drastically altered.

Author Bio

I'm an historian of Britain and its wider world, and I joined the University of Alabama  in the fall of 2017.

To Begin the World Over Again, a global history of the American Revolution, was published in October 2019.  The Conquest of Death, my first book, came out with Yale in June 2017.
?
Though my specialty is the social history of the law in the British empire, my broader interests include the history of crime and violence; gender, ethnicity, and immigration in early modern Europe and the Americas; comparative legal history; and the history of institutions, administration, and state formation.
