Loading... Setting the World Ablaze: Washington, Adams, Jefferson, and the American Revolution (edition 2002)by John FerlingThis work alone provided more breadth and depth than everything I learned during school. The comparative approach is useful, and Ferling seems to bring out the personalities without editorializing. The triumvirate of Jefferson (the pen), Adams (the tongue), and Washington (the sword) were as involved in the revolution as anyone. And yet Ferling shows that they were initially driven as much by themselves as by the idea of freedom. |
