America at 250 The American Revolution in History

The year 2026 marks the 250th anniversary of American independence, yet the founding is controversial now in ways it has not been in decades. The American Enterprise Institute offers a major intellectual and educational project to reintroduce Americans to the unique value of their national inheritance. In the final volume of this eight-book series, historians explore how generations of Americans have defined, debated, and drawn on the memory of the American Revolution. From the early republic to the present, Americans have repeatedly written new histories of their independence movement and centered "the Spirit of '76" in their arts and civic initiatives as a way to make sense of contemporary challenges. Studying the American Revolution's legacy shows how it has shaped American civic education, informed American culture, and enabled citizens to fashion a shared identity in a pluralistic nation.
