Opis

For this history, Dos Passos returns to the American colonial period and early nationhood, exploring the personalities who won the nation s independence from England: Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, John Adams, and George Washington.
Originally called The World Turned Upside Down, The Men Who Made the Nationcovers the period from 1781 to Hamilton s death in 1804. The work crystallizes the author s fascination with the psychology of the colonial freedom fighter and presents lessons for current American policymakers."
