SUMMARY:Quaff & Quill: A Book Talk with Richard Bell
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a talk with Professor Richard Bell (University of Maryland\, College Park) about his new book The American Revolution and the Fate of the World (2025). \nIn this revelatory and enthralling book\, award-winning historian Richard Bell reveals the full breadth and depth of America’s founding event. The American Revolution was not only the colonies’ triumphant liberation from the rule of an overbearing England; it was also a cataclysm that pulled in participants from around the globe and threw the entire world order into chaos. \nRepositioning the Revolution at the center of an international web\, Bell’s narrative ranges as far afield as India\, Africa\, Central America\, and Australia. As his lens widens\, the “War of Independence” manifests itself as a sprawling struggle that upended the lives of millions of people on every continent and fundamentally transformed the way the world works\, disrupting trade\, restructuring penal systems\, stirring famine\, and creating the first global refugee crisis. \nThe result is an unforgettable and unexpected work of American history that shifts everything we thought we knew about our creation story. \nLight refreshments will be served. \nThis is a hybrid event. Please join us in person or online via Zoom. \nCLICK HERE FOR IN PERSON REGISTRATION\nThomas Paine Cottage Museum\n20 Sicard Avenue\nNew Rochelle\, NY 10804\nDriving Directions \n  \nPresented in partnership with the Huguenot & New Rochelle Historical Association \n \nThis program is produced with support from the “Common Sense and the Constitution: Civic Engagement in the Spirit of 1776” initiative from the American History and Civics Education – Seminars (AHC-Seminars) Program at the Department of Education.
