In this landmark work of history, the National Book Award—winning author of American Sphinx explores how a group of greatly gifted but deeply flawed individuals–Hamilton, Burr, Jefferson, Franklin, Washington, Adams, and Madison–confronted the overwhelming challenges before them to set the course for our nation.
The United States was more a fragile hope than a reality in 1790. During the decade that followed, the Founding Fathers–re-examined here as Founding Brothers–combined the ideals of the Declaration of Independence with the content of the Constitution to create the practical workings of our government. Through an analysis of six fascinating episodes–Hamilton and Burr’s deadly duel, Washington’s precedent-setting Farewell Address, Adams’ administration and political partnership with his wife, the debate about where to place the capital, Franklin’s attempt to force Congress to confront the issue of slavery and Madison’s attempts to block him, and Jefferson and Adams’ famous correspondence– Founding Brothers brings to life the vital issues and personalities from the most important decade in our nation’s history.

評分我们已经无法回到过去,但我们可以无限接近过去。这本书把六个距离我们遥远且抽象的历史事件具象为一个个详细有趣的故事。在这本书,你可以看到汉密尔顿和伯尔决斗之日的服装、天气地点,甚至他俩谁先开枪,开枪前后的纠结想法等等,作者就像一位到达现场的调查记者,呈现一个...
評分 評分对于是否购买这本书,之前一直犹豫不决,因为就其目录揭示的六个故事来说,感觉其内容已经从其他来源见过,不会再有什么新意了。例如,汉密尔顿与伯尔的决斗,华盛顿的告别演说,亚当斯夫妇与杰斐逊的友谊,等等。但是,看完这本书后,感觉其中非常有料,披露了许多之前未曾见...
評分Hindsight, then, is a tricky tool. Too much of it and we obscure the all-pervasive sense of contingency as well as the problematic character of the choices facing the revolutionary generation. On the other hand, without some measure of hindsight, some panor...
