This is a very interesting book. Too many of us know little about the signers of the Declaration of Independence. This book fills you in about who they were and what they sacrificed ( often, everything) to achieve their objective. Formatted such that each signer 's story is told in two or three pages. So this is a volume you can pick up and put down to read as time allows. Highly recommended for any American History buff, or anyone who seeks to understand more about the TRUTHFUL founding of the United States. Each signers signature is reproduced on the pages beside their story, which is interesting.

This is an illuminating book, providing good info regarding the signers... a balance that humanizes them.... which just makes me hold them in higher regard. Should be required reading in elementary school. I recommend that EVERY American of sufficient age to comprehend them, read both the Declaration of Independence and Constitution, for a better appreciation of the men who were instrumental in crafting these United States of America.

This book enlightens it's readers to the unvarnished truth about what freedom really costs. Cast aside are the notions that all went well for the founding fathers of our country; the men that put everything on the line in order that this country could govern itself. A very edifying read for those interested in the beginnings of this great land we call the United States of America! Rick Ferguson Zionsville, IN
Book has torn edge pages, an index, but the pages aren't numbered and the small print size makes phone book print size look huge. Very unsatisfactory.

A must read for every red-blooded American. For these brave Founders, the war wasn’t over for them after the signing of the DOI....it had only just begun.
