De Founding Fathers. De Grondleggers Van De Verenigde Staten by Frans Verhagen
De Grondleggers Van De Verenigde Staten
A concise, illustrated account of the political leaders who forged the United States, profiling their personalities, ideas and rivalries as they moved from revolution to constitution-making and the establishment of national institutions; the book explains how Enlightenment philosophy, practical politics and hotly contested compromises—on representation, federal power and slavery—shaped the nation’s founding documents and early government, while highlighting enduring contradictions between the founders’ stated ideals and their actions, and assessing the lasting impact of their decisions on American political culture.
