Philadelphia was the beating heart of America’s Revolution. From the mid-1750s to 1783, the city faced war, occupation, and social upheaval, yet emerged transformed and resilient. Volume II explores how Philadelphians navigated political change, economic disruption, and shifting communities, from artisans and merchants to women and African Americans.
Discover the city’s role in the fight for independence, the rebirth of commerce and civic life, and the cultural and social networks that sustained its people. Through vivid detail and careful scholarship, this volume brings to life a metropolis in flux — a city that helped shape the new nation and laid the foundations of modern urban America.
