Rabble: A People's History of War and Rebellion in Colonial North America

by Daniel Garcia

Rabble is a path-breaking new history of war and war resistance in the tumultuous world of colonial America, focusing on the little-understood military roles and cultures of Native Americans, Africans, and European settlers. An ambitious narrative designed to examine the early centuries of American military history from the bottom up,” it resonates with the voices and actions of the marginalized and rebellious of the colonial times and includes the perspective of common people who worked, fought, bled, and died for and against the creation of the colonial world.
