SUMMARY:DPL: 250 Years of Us Book Club: Revolutionary Summer
DESCRIPTION:Virtual Only \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn the lead-up to America’s 250th anniversary\, this book club explores history through both fiction and non-fiction that challenge familiar narratives and invite fresh perspectives on the American past. Each selection encourages readers to look beyond the textbook version of history and consider the people\, choices\, and hidden stories that shaped the nation. \n\n\n\nJuly Selection: Revolutionary Summer: the Birth of American Independence by Joseph J. Ellis \n\n\n\nIn July’s selection\, we turn to a vivid work of narrative history that brings the turbulent summer of 1776 into sharp focus. Moving between Philadelphia\, New York City\, and London\, the book traces the precarious path toward independence through the perspectives of political leaders\, soldiers\, and ordinary citizens. By weaving together battlefield realities with the high-stakes debates of the Continental Congress\, this selection highlights the uncertainty\, risk\, and contingency at the nation’s founding—inviting readers to reconsider the Revolution not as an inevitable triumph\, but as a fragile and deeply human moment in history. \n\n\n\n\nREGISTER
