Three key Founding Fathers played significant roles: John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, and Alexander Hamilton. Their lives and policies could not have been more different; their relationships with each other were complex and often rife with animosity. And yet these three men led the charge-two of them creating and signing the Declaration of Independence, and the third establishing a national treasury and the earliest delineation of a Republican party. They managed to shoulder the heavy mantle of creating the United States of America, putting aside their differences to make a great country, once and always. Drawing on extensive correspondence, epic tales of war, and rich histories of their day-to-day interactions, Winston Groom shares the remarkable story of the beginnings of our great nation."-- $c Provided by publisher. 541 $d 20230816. 600 1 $a Adams, John, $d 1735-1826. 600 1 $a Hamilton, Alexander $d 1757-1804. 600 1 $a Jefferson, Thomas $d 1743-1826. 650 $a Statesmen $z United States $x Biography. 650 $a Revolutionaries $z United States $v Biography. 650 $a Founding Fathers of the United States $v Biography. 651 $a United States $x History $y Revolution, 1775-1783. 651 $a United States $x Politics and government $y 1783-1789. 651 $a United States $x History $y 1783-1815. 941 $a 1 952 $l OGPC877 $d 20231018010834.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C5A7A2946D7B11EEBBB0FB5526ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
