Story
Ira Stoll's fascinating biography not only restores this figure to his rightful place in history but portrays him as a man of God whose skepticism of a powerful central government, uncompromising support for freedom of the press, concern about the influence of money on elections, voluble love of liberty, and selfless endurance in a war for freedom has enormous relevance to Americans today.

This book is the best that I have come across on Samuel Adams. It goes into details that other books live out. I loved it. Thought it was fantastic.

Story
The French and Indian War: 1660-1763 covers much more than the few years during which the English and French fought over the division of the North American continent in one of the most neglected periods of American history. In this volume in the Drama of American History series, authors Christopher Collier and James Lincoln Collier trace how England’s other rivals for control of America were eliminated over this period until the only source of conflict left would be between the British and their own colonists.

Fantastic story of a master teacher
Reviewed: 04-01-22
Richard Williams story is an absolute wonder. His ability to learn and grow and teach are unparalleled. He is a self-taught master teacher and his daughters prove it. King Richard is an American story of success in the face of racism. Excellent!
