I was inspired by a post on AskReddit where some British users said that their universities had approached the Revolution (or, I suppose, Rebellion) as a learning lesson for the Empire in terms of policy.
I am curious if anybody knows of any books that might cover this perspective. I checked the AskHistorians Book List, but I couldn't find anything in there.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
The Long fuse by Don Cook is another.
