Likewise, many a French official has underscored the unwavering and “natural” quality of the commitment between France and the United States (De Gaulle 1965; Mitterrand 1984; Macron 2018). Yet political scientists and historians often point to the cyclical nature of French-American relations (Duroselle 1978; Bozo and Parmentier 2007: 545).

    "SUCH DISORDERS CAN ONLY BE CURED BY COPIOUS BLEEDINGS": THE CORRESPONDENCE OF ISAAC CRAIG DURING THE WHISKEY REBELLION Edited by Kenneth A. White of the surprisingly underutilized sources on the early history Oneof Pittsburgh is the Craig Papers. Acase inpoint is Isaac Craig's correspondence during the Whiskey Rebellion. Although some of his letters from that period have been published, 1 most have not. This omission is particularly curious, because only a few eyewitness ac- counts of the insurrection exist and most ofthose were written from an Antifederalist viewpoint. These letters have a value beyond the narration of events, how- ever. One of the questions debated by historians is why the federal government resorted to force to put down the insurrection. Many have blamed Alexander Hamilton for the action, attributing it to his per- sonal approach to problems or to his desire to strengthen the central government. 2 These critics tend to overlook one fact : government officials make decisions based not only on their personal philosophy but also on the facts available to them. As a federal officer on the scene, Craig provided Washington and his cabinet with their informa- Kenneth White received his B.A. and M.A.degrees from Duquesne Uni- versity.

The early Republic forms one such historical time period where, evidence suggests, historians have conjured nationalism where only a fractured nation existed.

Given this fact, it is hardly surprising that the 1795 case Respublica v. Montgomery1 seldom figures as more than a minor footnote in scholarly writing about early American constitutional development, if it receives any attention at all.2 The case has little precedential value for modern First Amendment doctrine and only obliquely implicates larger jurisprudential questions about the rights of assembly and freedom of expression.3 In strictly doctrinal terms, Montgomery is primarily about the obligation of a justice of the peace to put down a riot, not an extended judicial disquisition on the meaning of early American freedom of association or expression.4 Montgomery was one of several cases that resulted from popular protest during the Whiskey * Paul and Diane Guenther Chair in American History, Fordham University.

It included the “united” snake with 13 rattles. It symbolized 13 stripes of red and white, but instead of stars, it the desire of the colonies to defend their liberty… resembled more the British “Union Jack” flag. and to attack if anyone tried to take liberty away. Unit 3 Brief Summary This summary is not meant to replace your reading, and it by no means covers every significant fact from the era… but it will provide a simple overview/review of the era with some of the major terms in bold as a reminder of those items most likely to show up on the exam. Consider it an introduction to the era review. The British let the colonists have a great deal of economic and political independence under a policy called Salutary Neglect. This practice ended after the French and Indian War which resulted from the British challenging France for possession of North America, of 1754-1763. The French and Indian War was one of most important events of the 18th century which decisively shaped American history, hastening independence and stirring a spirit of revenge among the French which further hastened the break with England. Therefore, the American Revolution essentially began in 1763 even though the shot heard round the world didn’t occur until 1775.
