How did the colonies rally when trade networks were destroyed, inflation undermined the economy, and artisans could not produce enough weapons to equip an army?

Signed copies of Manufacturing Independence, illustrated with portraits of key military figures and pictures of the technology behind the armaments, will be available for purchase.
