Shots Heard Round the World - A Conversation with John Ferling
Thursday, 11 December, 2025
How can the American Revolution be understood as a global war? How were the war’s effects felt at home and abroad? In this virtual interview conversation with John Ferling*, author of Shots Heard Round the World: America, Britain, and Europe in the Revolutionary War., we discuss the subjects of Ferling’s most recent book and the broader scope of the Revolutionary War, followed by an audience Q&A. Following a 40-year teaching career, John Ferling retired from teaching and is Professor Emeritus of History at the University of West Georgia. He wrote and published throughout his career and is the author of 16 books, mostly dealing with the American Revolution and the War of Independence. This talk was recorded as part of Fraunces Tavern Museum's Evening Lecture series on Monday, December 8, 2025. *The views of the speakers are their own and do not necessarily represent the views of Sons of the Revolution℠ in the State of New York, Inc. or its Fraunces Tavern® Museum.
