Overview

Reveals the common principles that make us essentially American. They are articulated by the admirable men and women who first wrote what it is to be American. Bennett has collected the best that has been thought and said by and about the men and women who founded America: George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, Benjamin Franklin, Alexander Hamilton, John and Abigail Adams, and so many more. Not since Periclean Athens has such a small nation been led by so many larger-than-life figures. They give advice on virtually every aspect of -- good government, good relations between individuals and nations, and what it means to live a good life.
