Description
In the 250th anniversary year of American independence, this sweeping work explores the people and pivotal moments that shaped the nation’s earliest years. Through the lives of John Adams, George Washington, Daniel Shays, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, and John Quincy Adams, it traces the difficult path from revolution to self-government, examining battles over law, liberty, expansion, national power, and equality. These interconnected stories reveal how courage, conflict, and competing visions helped unite a fragile republic and define its place in the world. Written in an accessible, fast-paced style, the book offers a vivid look at the founders and contested ideals that continue to influence America.
