Could the American Revolution Been Avoided?

Could Have the American Revolution Been Avoided? As Benjamin Franklin once said, “No gains without pain.” This could not be more of a true statement when speaking of the American Revolution.

Since everything was being taxed at high prices in the colonies, the tables were bound to turn. This is another reason as to why I believe
