'Carol Berkin's lively narrative of one British Loyalist's disastrous career uncovers in an arresting manner the other side of the U. S. Revolution. The Revolution, from Sewall's point of view, was an unnecessary and unworthy attack by charlatans and demagogues on the best society the world had yet created. Although Sewall sought to avoid confrontation with his increasingly revolutionary friends, including Sam & John Adams and John Hancock, and at the same time be independent in his appointed posts, he was trapped in the political hierarchy of colonial Massachusetts. When the Revolution began in earnest, he left a beleaguered Boston to take refuge in England where he met the same fate as the other Tory refugees: he was an insignificant colonial, unworthy of royal patronage.
