Quarters: The Accommodation of the British Army and the Coming of the American Revolution

Quarters explains how disputes over housing British troops moved from practical disagreements to a constitutional crisis. John Gilbert McCurdy follows quartering controversies across Britain’s North American colonies and shows that local responses varied sharply. By connecting households, military administration, and imperial law, the book reframes the coming of the American Revolution as a struggle over space, authority, and political belonging.
