An earlier version of this article gave the work's title as The American Revolution: Written in Scriptural, or, Ancient Historical Style. However, this is a title that appeared on an 1802 reprint of the book. The original was titled The American Revolution; Written in the Style of Ancient History, visible in the image in the infobox and as verified by reliable secondary sources: Eran Shalev, Rome Reborn on Western Shores: Historical Imagination and the Creation of the American Republic (Univeristy of Virginia Press, 2009), 202 and Rosalind Remer, Printers and Men of Capital: Philadelphia Book Publishers in the New Republic (University of Pennsylvania Press, 1996), 176n18 Hydrangeans (she/her | talk | edits) 20:57, 3 April 2024 (UTC)
