Hero Of Two Worlds by Mike Duncan
The Marquis de Lafayette in the Age of Revolution
A concise, narrative biography of the Marquis de Lafayette that follows his transformation from an idealistic young aristocrat who sailed to America to fight for independence into a central, complicated actor in the French Revolution and the age of revolutionary upheaval; it weaves his military exploits, political choices, personal relationships, periods of exile and imprisonment, and his later reconciliation with both nations into a portrait of a man who helped shape—and was shaped by—the transatlantic struggle for liberty.
