This book was alright. It was not the most interesting book of all, but it kept me reading. I liked this book because of the facts that it had, and how it gave me so much much more knowledge about that time. It did get boring at parts, but it was not enough to turn me off from it. I love the revolution, so this book caught my interest. I like how all of the founding fathers were just humble farmers until the time came upon them. If you have a friend who loves non-fiction books, have them read this book. They will like it.… (mehr)
