Samuel Adams: Son of Liberty, Father of Revolution (Oxford Portraits) by Benjamin H. Irvin
Requirements: PDF Reader, 1.1 mb
Overview: he story of one of the most important — and most elusive — figures of the American Revolution, Samuel Adams traces the life of the “Man of the Revolution,” as he was called by Thomas Jefferson, from his childhood as a fifth-generation New Englander to his pivotal role in the Boston Tea Party and war that followed to a life spent in public service. Benjamin Irvin explores the fascinating contradictions of Samuel Adams’s life: he was born into a family of high rank, but lived a humble, almost impoverished life; he could barely manage his personal household, but brilliantly managed the Massachusetts House of Representatives; he pushed for the Revolution, but resisted the Constitution; he spearheaded resistance to the English government but staunchly opposed resistance to the U.S. government. A perceptive look at the life of a complex man, Samuel Adams is an evocative portrait of one of our nation’s most interesting Founding Fathers.
