The American Revolution was fought in print as well as on battlefields. Paper rebels; ink remembers everything. Volume V of Charles Evanss landmark work maps the surge of voices from colonial America 1774-1778, when presses answered crisis with sermons, broadsides, news-sheets, and argument. American Bibliography is a chronological American bibliography and a precise early American imprints catalog, organised as a dictionary of books, pamphlets, and periodical publications printed in the United States from 1639 onward. This instalment, covering 1774-1778, is an essential historical book reference guide for anyone tracing United States printing history through American revolution era imprints: the rhetoric of committees and congresses, the reach of revolutionary war pamphlets, and the shifting landscape captured in an 18th century periodicals index. Evanss bibliographical and biographical notes turn bare entries into signposts, making this volume as rewarding to browse as it is to consult. Scholars, genealogists, and history enthusiasts will find fast routes into primary sources; for library collection development it remains a dependable compass; and for collectors it functions as a rare book collectors guide within the wider early American imprints series and the enduring Evans American bibliography set. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today -- a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike.
