Review
2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. essential readingBy Kristine CourtialWhen thinking about the success of our early nation; one must read this. The heroes of the early republic were not just on the battle field or the halls in government. Our brightest intellectuals set out to define who we are as a culture to distinguish us from our British cousins and create this thing called an American. Where other new world nations failed; we excelled. The failures of later revolutions to establish long lasting stable republics can be explained in the failure to clearly establish a culture of language; art and literature that is distinct from the European colonizer.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. great bookBy jpaskillgreat source for materials for anyone who loves history; loves to read or is a history major in college. great insight into the early American government and somewhat public lives of the Revolutionary generation.
