History of the World for Young Readers has 16 chapters. Chapter 13, "The Age of Revolution", covers the American REvolution (Chapter 12 having dealt with the founding of European colonies in what is now North America).
While the author deals sympathetically with the Indians in North America ("Had Spaniards and Englishmen met the Indians in the spirit of friendship, much bloodshed and abguish might have been avoided. But the white man's insatiable greed made him careless of the Indian's rights. Understandably, the natural warmth of the Indian quickly turned to hatred and a desire for revenge of the wrongs imposed on him.)
However, there is no such sympathy for the British ruling America in 1776, or for the Tories (American Loyalists).
Indeed, the entire Revolution is given only a single page (the wrongs done by England to the Colonies, leading up to the Revolution, are given 7 pages. [But then, the American Civil War is only given a couple of paragraphs, too. That's what you get when you read an overview of history.]
