Kerber  is having some interesting conversations with wood and Morgan in the first chapters. Kerber mentions the patriarchy of Morgan and draws parallels to woods point that slavery and the role p women changed very little in the revolutionary period. 

As current day readers it is easy to say that the American revolution was radical in equalizing all. Yet we need to remember that the change we see today is not reflective of how the framers made the system.

I wonder if the historiography of social change in the American revolution reflects a growing trend of writing that indeed the revolution was radical.
