"The Roots of American Civilization"
A History of American Colonial Life by
Curtis P Nettles, Cornell University

How about a few more.

"The Peoples History of the American Revolution" by Ray Raphael has a very interesting chapter on who was and who was not a patriot and the many reasons why. The section on the Green Mountain Boys was very revealing.

"The Urban Crucible" by Gary Nash tells the story of the economics behind the revolution by comparing Boston, Philadelphia, and New York. Gary Nash has several books out that cover new ground on the Revolution but this is the only one I have read.

"The Many Stories of History" by Ozment and Turner.
:Virgin Land: the American West as Symbol and Myth" by Henry Nash Smith.
