The Meaning of Independence
Author: Edmund Sears MorganPublisher:
ISBN: 9780813922652
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 91
Book Description
Americans did not at first cherish the idea of political severance from their mother country. In just a few years, however, they came to desire indepen-dence above all else. What brought about this change of feeling and how did it affect the lives of their citizens? To answer these questions, Edmund S. Morgan looks at three men who may fairly be called the "architects of independence," the first presidents of the United States. Anecdotes from their letters and diaries recapture the sense of close identity many early Americans felt with their country’s political struggles. Through this perspective, Morgan examines the growth of independence from its initial declaration and discovers something of its meaning, for three men who responded to its challenge and for the nation that they helped create. The Meaning of Independence, first published in 1976, has become one of the standard short works on the first three presidents of the United States—George Washington, John Adams, and Thomas Jefferson. When the Mount Vernon Ladies’ Association and the Organization of American Historians asked 1,500 historians to name the ten best books about George Washington, this book was one of those selected. In this updated edition, the author provides a new preface to address a few remaining concerns he has pondered in the quarter century since first publication.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Deland Family in America: A Biographical Genealogy Genealogy is history as related to our forebears and their issue. This should be a fascinating study to those whose line of descent is clear and whose ancestors and relatives, as in case Of many Old American families, have been persons Of creditable character and achievements. It passes under standing how anyone can be interested in examining and classifying remains of prehuman life or in discovery Of ancient pots and coins indicative of the kind Of existence which primitive races of men experienced yet care little or nothing for the records Of his own people.
