The Real Story Behind the Founding Fathers
The Founding Fathers are essential to the American narrative. Unfortunately, popular histories have a tendency to gloss over unpleasant truths and harmonize the discordant voices of the past. This book looks beyond powdered wigs and polished portraits to find the human founders of the United States. Multiple and minority perspectives are taken into account, and well-worn stories of the founding era are revisited, from the complex issues of slavery and religion to the myth of George Washington's wooden teeth. Thoughtful text and fun sidebars illuminate primary sources and invite readers to think critically about these familiar figures in American history.

The Founding Fathers Reconsidered
Here is a vividly written and compact overview of the brilliant, flawed, and quarrelsome group of lawyers, politicians, merchants, military men, and clergy known as the "Founding Fathers"--who got as close to the ideal of the Platonic "philosopher-kings" as American or world history has ever seen. In The Founding Fathers Reconsidered, R. B. Bernstein reveals Washington, Franklin, Jefferson, Adams, Hamilton, and the other founders not as shining demigods but as imperfect human beings--people much like us--who nevertheless achieved political greatness. They emerge here as men who sought to transcend their intellectual world even as they were bound by its limits, men who strove to lead the new ...

Founding Fathers of America
Founding Fathers of America To understand the United States, it's vital to understand the Founding Fathers-the men whose ideas became the pillars of American society. These seven key figures at the very dawn of what would become the United States of America played different roles, including drafting the Declaration of Independence, advocating ratification of the Constitution, and negotiating with Great Britain for freedom during the American Revolutionary War. While George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, and James Madison all served as presidents of the newly formed nation, John Jay, Alexander Hamilton, and Benjamin Franklin showed that the title wasn't necessary to bring forth ideas and changes that would immortalize them forever as founders of one of the most powerful countries in history. Inside you will read about... - George Washington - Alexander Hamilton - John Jay - John Adams - Benjamin Franklin - James Madison - Thomas Jefferson And much more! In this book, you will read about the Founding Fathers, their upbringings, personal lives, political careers, and the work they did to earn them their rightful place in American history.
Together, They Founded the United States: Six Founding Fathers
The term Founding Fathers is a twentieth century creation. The American Revolution was the catalyst that brought several different factions together to fight England, the common enemy. A diverse group of Colonial leaders determinately rallied the people from diverse regions to oppose what they saw as tyranny from across the ocean. These differences of opinion resulted in the creation of political parties, providing a mechanism and a forum for discussion and decision making rather than internal bloodshed. Multiple compromises resulted in the adoption of the United States Constitution in 1789. The focus of Together, They Founded the United States is six of these men who had significant impact upon the founding and sustaining of the nation. Each had his strengths, weaknesses, and strong opinions; therefore, each experienced opposition from his peers. The six Founding Fathers examined in this study are John Jay, Alexander Hamilton, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, and James Monroe. Because of the abundance of information regarding the roles played by George Washington and Benjamin Franklin, they have been omitted.
