Printing the American Revolution

As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, explore how print culture was crucial to the American Revolution. Prints, books, and newspapers shaped colonists' reactions to British rule, informed Americans of major developments during the war, and commemorated beloved leaders after the United States gained its independence. Read about these important works thanks to students' research in Dr. Mary Draper's Revolutionary America class from the History Department at MSU Texas.
