This article focuses on the book "The Colonial Merchants and the American Revolution, 1763-1776," by Arthur Meier Schlesinger. This books is a work of devoted scholarship and abundant research with full citation of the original evidence, and is issued as volume 78 of the "Studies in History, Economics, and Public Law," edited by the Faculty of Political Science of Columbia University. In the northern colonies down to Maryland, the merchants were the picturesque ship-owning class just described, and usually natives of or living in the colonies. The burden of Dr. Schlesinger's book is the effect of revolution on these men and their effect on the revolution.
