The Birth of America: An Historical Drama in Three Acts is a play written by Matthew Page Andrews and published in 1920. The play is set in the late 18th century and follows the events leading up to the American Revolution and the birth of the United States of America. The play is divided into three acts, each of which covers a different period in American history. The first act focuses on the early colonial period, including the arrival of the Pilgrims and the establishment of the Massachusetts Bay Colony. The second act covers the lead-up to the American Revolution, including the Boston Tea Party and the signing of the Declaration of Independence. The final act covers the early years of the new nation, including the writing of the Constitution and the establishment of the federal government.Throughout the play, Andrews weaves together historical facts and fictionalized characters to create a dramatic retelling of the birth of America. The play features a cast of notable historical figures, including George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, and Thomas Jefferson, as well as fictional characters who represent the struggles and triumphs of the American people.Overall, The Birth of America is a compelling historical drama that offers a unique perspective on the events that shaped the United States. Andrews' skillful storytelling and attention to historical detail make this play a must-read for anyone interested in American history or drama.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
