This history book could be considered a classic among works about the American Revolution because it absolutely dispels the myth that at the time Boston was a homogenous fortress of Patriot thinkers. Stark does this by cataloguing in great detail the facts about many loyalist families who lived in and around Boston during the Revolution.

Loyalists, the American colonists who remained loyal to the British Empire during the American Revolutionary War, have long suffered under the pervasive belief that the American Revolution was due solely to the oppression and tyranny of the British, and that George Washington, Franklin, Adams, Hancock, and the host of other Revolutionary patriots, possessed all the admirable qualities ever exhibited by men in their respective spheres, and that the Tories or Loyalists, such as Hutchinson, the Olivers, Saltonstalls, Winslows, Quincys and others, were to be detested and their memory execrated for their abominable and unpatriotic actions. This near universal view led the author to inquire and to examine whether there might not be two sides to the controversy which led to the Revolutionary War. This volume represents his conclusions for the Loyalists in Massachusetts. The book, basically, contains two parts. The first part of the book describes the causes of the American Revolution, treatment of Massachusetts' Loyalists and confiscation of their property, their emigration to Canada, and much more. Part II contains "Biographical Sketches of the Loyalists of Massachusetts," including family histories for many, and their lives following the War. This volume is profusely illustrated with more than 50 engravings, paintings, and drawings and, at the collusion of the book, two Indices: (1) An Index of names; including the names of identified Loyalists whose biography does not appear in this work; and (2), an Index of Subjects.

NATIONAL BOOK CRITICS CIRCLE AWARD WINNER • This groundbreaking book offers the first global history of the loyalist exodus to Canada, the Caribbean, Sierra Leone, India, and beyond. At the end of the American Revolution, sixty thousand Americans loyal to the British cause fled the United States and became refugees throughout the British Empire. Liberty's Exiles tells their story. “A smart, deeply researched and elegantly written history.” —New York Times Book Review This surprising account of the founding of the United States and the shaping of the post-revolutionary world traces extraordinary journeys like the one of Elizabeth Johnston, a young mother from Georgia, who led her growing family to Britain, Jamaica, and Canada, questing for a home; black loyalists such as David George, who escaped from slavery in Virginia and went on to found Baptist congregations in Nova Scotia and Sierra Leone; and Mohawk Indian leader Joseph Brant, who tried to find autonomy for his people in Ontario. Ambitious, original, and personality-filled, this book is at once an intimate narrative history and a provocative analysis that changes how we see the revolution’s “losers” and their legacies.

By: James H. Stark, Pub. 1910, reprinted 2024, 606 pages, Index, soft cover, ISBN #978-1-63914-231-6. This book begins with the documenting of the trials of Loyalists at various levels of Massachusetts society, such as those of native-born Governor Thomas Hutchinson and John Singleton Copley, both of whom abandoned Massachusetts to live out the balance of their years in exile in Great Britain. Next the author describes general patterns of Loyalism, such as the confiscation of Loyalist property and the Loyalist exodus to Canada. The bulk of this book is devoted to detailed biographies of specific Loyalist families. In most cases, these biographies carry the family out to several generations, the events leading up to the family's departure from the United States, and some account of the Loyalists' post war fortunes or whereabouts.
