The Loyalists of Massachusetts and the Other Side of the American Revolution
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.

The Late Years of Benedict Arnold
The life of Benedict Arnold, the American Revolutionary War general who attempted to surrender West Point to the British in 1780, didn't end after he betrayed his American compatriots. In the newly formed United States, he was condemned as a conspirator and in Britain, he was suspected of the same. He quickly left America, spent a short time in London, and largely operated in Canada and the Caribbean as a smuggler, a mercenary and a pariah.

This study documents each of the various points of the globe where the restless Arnold operated and lived, pursuing wealth, status, and redemption.
