Washington Franklin Jefferson Hamilton Adams and Madison-together they are best known as an intimate cadre of daring brilliant men credited with our nation's founding. But does this group tell the whole story In his widely praised new history of the roots of American patriotism celebrated author Ray Raphael expands the historical canvas to reveal an entire generation of patriots who pushed for independence fought a war and set the United States on its course-giving us "an evangelizing introduction to the American Revolution" Booklist. Called "entertaining yet informative" by Library Journal Founders brings to life seven historical figures whose stories anchor a sweeping yet intimate history of the Founding Era from the beginnings of unrest in 1761 through the passage of the Bill of Rights thirty years later. Here we follow the intertwined lives of George Washington and a private soldier in his army. America's richest merchant who rescued the nation from bankruptcy goes head to head with a peripatetic revolutionary who incited rebellion in seven states. Rounding out the company is a richly nuanced cast that includes a common village blacksmith a conservative slave owner with an abolitionist son and Mercy Otis Warren the most politically engaged woman of the time. - from the dj flap.

Pages are very clean and clear. Navy cloth boards with gilt lettering; color illustrated dj mylar cover; xiv 206 pp. "William Griffith Wilson recently cited by Time magazine as one of the hundred most influential individuals of the twentieth century is better known to many as Bill W. cofounder of Alcoholics Anonymous. In Bill W. and Mr. Wilson Matthew J. Raphael presents a revealing new look at both the legendary Bill W. and the private Mr. Wilson who tried to live apart from his own celebrity." "In quest of a more historically accurate and complete account Raphael separates fact from fiction in the standard biographies of Wilson and finds reason to doubt the literal truth of some foundational A.A. stories. He also provides a context for Wilson's and thus A.A.'s key ideas in the work of William James Carl Jung and other modern thinkers. What emerges is an unvarnished portrait of a charismatic man and social visionary; whose true greatness is all the more apparent in view of his human imperfections." "Readers already familiar with Alcoholics Anonymous will find much to engage them. Others will discover A.A. and its cofounder from an insider's perspective."--Jacket.
