Independence Lost reveals that individual motives counted as much as the ideals of liberty and freedom the Founders espoused: Independence had a personal as well as national meaning, and the choices made by people living outside the colonies were of critical importance to the war's outcome.

Extremely enlightening & fascinating, especially to a Southerner

As an 8th generation Alabamian, I learned much about which I had never been exposed from this era of history in and connected to my region. I had no idea about the complex and active levels of diplomacy by Southeast Indian tribes, nor about many complexities of the American Revolution here in what is now the Southeastern US. I will definitely be recommending the book to friends. The storytelling style of relaying the history was definitely engaging. And like any well written book, I was sorry to come to the end. I look forward to more of Professor DuVal's work.
