American Revolution - Lessons on Human Nature and Life

What seemed improbable in 1776 became one of the most significant events in world history. In a lifetime of studying history, the American Revolution stands out. Through it, Leonard Zucker discovered the complexity, uncertainty and unpredictability of human events. Despite being a minority, a small group of Americans drove the colonies toward independence. 250 years after the Declaration of Independence, this class explores the lessons that can be drawn from that struggle, revealing the challenges, contradictions and human dynamics that shaped the birth of the United States.
