In 1763, the American colonies were proud members of the
British Empire, but just over a decade later, they broke away and
declared independence. What happened? This course taught
by Julie Anne Sweet takes an in-depth look at those events to
uncover their true history and to provide background and
context for the many 250th anniversary commemorations
coming in the next few years.
