Patriots: The Men Who Started the American Revolution

Langguth wrote a noteworthy book, a smooth read, & the best profiles I’ve read. They were men of faiths, gave selflessly to provide the framework, our foundation & guide to centuries of freedom. Funny thing, they didn’t necessarily like each other, but they did respect each man’s contribution. They sacrificed family time & personal work, over years, to build the gift of liberty. That freedom ALLOWS our personal choices in how we pay it forward as responsible citizens.

Shipping was fast and the item was packaged well, The book itself was at the lower end of its quality level, yet it will be a good addition to my history collection. I used to list books for myself and for a liquidator, so I am very aware of quality and value - this was a very good value! I'll give it a little boost for the service.

This book emphasizes the people who started the quest for freedom and how they worked together to make it happen. I would highly recommend this book.

Many stories woven together to give a seamless sense from start to finish of the nations birth and the key players behind it.

I picked this book up on the recommendation of another and was pleasantly surprized by the structure of the book and the way the author developed the narrative. The author absolutely brought to life historical figures and really was the best treatment of Samuel Adams I've yet to see. Also, I especially appreciate the author's treatment of the period from 1760 to the battle of Lexington and Concord. This gave me an understanding of the impetus to war that I was lacking before, and I am interested in this era! I would not hesitate to encourage anyone who is interested in this period to invest their time and money in this book.

A complete revelation of the events leading up to and during the American Revolution, this account is comprehensive even to the private remarks and frequent squabbles that often seemed to consume the men and women involved.It is not only informative, but also entertaining and difficult to put down, as only the very best histories can claim!

Should be required reading for all members of Congress - details the history and the effort to make a great nationCongress would learn a lesson in compromise from reading this book

Every true American should read this book and every parent should have their children read this book. Real true American history is getting hard to find. Don't let the left destroy our American history.

Interesting.
