Profiles of Revolutionaries in Atlantic History, 1700–1850. Edited by R. William Weisberger, Dennis P. Hupchick, and David L. Anderson. (Boulder, CO: Social Science Monographs, 2007. 360 pp. Notes, index. $40.)

This collection of essays covers important revolutionaries throughout the Atlantic world, ranging from George Washington to Toussaint Louverture to Alexis de Tocqueville. Lesser known figures are also included: the Mexican revolutionary Padre Miguel Hidalgo, the Argentine rebel José Francisco de San Martín, and the Irish revolutionary John Mitchel. In addition, the editors added some interesting pieces on nonrevolutionaries, namely Molly Pitcher and Hezekiah Niles. Their purpose in assembling such an eclectic mix of essays is to show how "prominent individuals associated with various revolutionary movements" affected "revolutions in science and technology, the political revolutions in the Americas between 1776 and 1812, and those in Europe between 1789 and 1848" (1).
