Independence Lost: Lives on the Edge of the American Revolution
On Monday, January 27, 2025, I sat down with Kathleen DuVal to discuss her book Independence Lost: Lives on the Edge of the American Revolution. Dr. DuVal, a North Carolina Chapel Hill professor, highlighted her book about the American Revolution in the Gulf Coast and the Mississippi River Valley, the little-known story that students and adults know little about. It involved Spain and France’s support of the American Patriots. Without their support, we may not have won our independence from Great Britain. She will also share about the 18th-century hurricane season and how it affected those fighting the war. Dr. DuVal wrote a well-written book that details the lesser-known story of the American Revolution that every American should know about.
