Annotation |
Examines the public identities projected by Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and John Marshall to find the basis for the beliefs and character of each. Through documents and anecdotes we see the influence of Addison and Steele on young Franklin's newspaper writings, Adams as "Novanglus" in lively debate with a Loyalist, and echoes of Sir Edward Coke in Marshall's opinion in Mabury v. Madison.
