Alexander Hamilton: A Biography
ISBN: 9780393300482 / Angielski / Miękka / 1982 / 480 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) The founders of the American republic were ardently concerned with the judgment of posterity. Had they known what a fickle muse Clio would prove to be, they might have been more anxious. The making of myths and legends, complete with a hagiology and demonology, is inherent in the process of evolution toward nationhood. Consequently, individual actors in the original drama have often been consigned by History to roles they did not actually play, and the most important of them have played shifting roles, being heroes in one generation and villains in the next. It is therefore not surprising...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) In this volume, Forrest McDonald admits that George Washington was no executive genius, and notes that a number of his advisers and cabinet members were considerably more important in formulating programs and policies than he was.

ISBN: 9780700613298 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 198 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Forrest McDonald is a legend in his own time. The NEH's sixteenth Jefferson Lecturer, he is one of our most eminent historians and the author of numerous provocative works on the early American republic, the Constitution, and the American presidency. Renowned for his sly wit and iconoclasm, he is also a conservative in a mostly liberal profession, a man who believes that his discipline has been subverted by those who serve public policy agendas. He now candidly recounts and reconsiders his own career, mixing in equal measure autobiography with a sharp critique of the historical craft....

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Thomas Jefferson occupies a special niche in the hagiology of American Founding Fathers. His name is invoked for a staggering range of causes; statists and libertarians, nationalists and States' righters, conservatives and radicals all claim his blessing. In this book, Forrest McDonald examines Jefferson's performance as the nation's leader, evaluating his ability as a policy-maker, administrator, and diplomat.

We the People: The Economic Origins of the Constitution
ISBN: 9781560005742 / Angielski / Miękka / 1991 / 460 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Charles A. Bear's An Economic Interpretation of the United States Constitution was a work of such powerful persuasiveness as to alter the course of American historiography. No historian who followed in studying the making of the Constitution was entirely free from Beard's radical interpretation of the document as serving the economic interests of the Framers as members of the propertied class. Forrest McDonald's We the People was the first major challenge to Beard's thesis. This superbly researched and documented volume restored the Constitution as the work of principled... Charles A.
