商品簡介
Can’t get enough of Hamilton? Think the British were the only ones we squabbled with during the Revolutionary War? Think again! A unique look at how the founding fathers settled their differences in their quest to settle a nation.
The Revolutionary War was full of bloody battles and broken treaties. But it wasn’t just about the colonies fighting the crown. In the 18th century, it seemed that everyone was at war with each other—including the very people who were supposedly leading us on a path to independence! Don’t miss out on a ringside seat for these fascinating bouts:
• Benjamin Franklin’s son William was once jailed on accusations of being a traitor . . . and Ben didn’t even visit him.
• Thomas Jefferson quit his job as secretary of state because his archrival, Alexander Hamilton, started the national bank.
• John Adams and Thomas Jefferson died on the same day. Could it have been mutual exhaustion after years of disagreement?
George Washington vs. King George. Benjamin Franklin vs. his son William. John Adams vs. Thomas Jefferson. Alexander Hamilton vs. everyone! Join historian Anne Quirk and illustrator Elizabeth Baddeley as they referee four fascinating historical throw-downs between the founding fathers . . . and prove that the United States of America is a place worth fighting for.
