Summary:
"Thomas Jefferson asserted that if there was any leader of the Revolution, '
Samuel
Adams
was the man.' With high-minded ideals and bare-knuckle tactics,
Adams
led what could be called the greatest campaign of civil resistance in American history. Stacy Schiff returns
Adams
to his seat of glory, introducing us to the shrewd and eloquent man who supplied the moral backbone of the American Revolution. He employed every tool available to rally a town, a colony, and eventually a band of colonies behind him, creating the cause that created a country. For his efforts he became the most wanted man in America: When Paul Revere rode to Lexington in 1775, it was to warn
Samuel
Adams
that he was about to be arrested for treason. In The
Revolutionary
:
Samuel
Adams
, Schiff brings her masterful skills to
Adams
's improbable life, illuminating his transformation from aimless son of a well-off family to tireless, beguiling radical who mobilized the colonies."--From publisher.
