Ashli White Revolutionary things

In the wake of the American and French Revolutions, thousands of men and women took to the roads and waterways on both sides of the Atlantic--refugees in search of their inalienable rights. Although larger nations fortified their borders and circumscribed citizenship, two port cities, German Hamburg and Danish...
