Samuel Adams is perhaps the most unheralded and overshadowed of the founding fathers, yet without him there would have been no American Revolution. A genius at devising civil protests and political maneuvers that became a trademark of American politics, Adams astutely forced Britain into coercive military measures that ultimately led to the irreversible split in the empire. His remarkable political career addresses all the major issues concerning America's decision to become a nation -- from the notion of taxation without representation to the Declaration of Independence. George Washington, Thomas Jefferson and John Adams all acknowledged that they built our nation on Samuel Adams' foundations. Now, in this riveting biography, his story is finally told and his crucial place in American history is fully recognized.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMark Puls\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of \u003ci\u003eSamuel Adams: Father of the American Revolution\u003c\/i\u003e, winner of the Fraunces Tavern award, and co-author of \u003ci\u003eUncommon Valor: A Story of Race, Patriotism and Glory in the Final Battles of the Civil War. \u003c\/i\u003ePuls has worked as a journalist for \u003ci\u003eThe Detroit News\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 288\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.7 x 9.1 x 6.1 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 01, 2009\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47454433018034,"sku":"9780230614000","price":22.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0770\/3891\/1666\/files\/84f184508fdbf1aeb5ffc1faaf0158b3.webp?v=1778850756","url":"https:\/\/box.dadyminds.org\/products\/samuel-adams-father-of-the-american-revolution-paperback","provider":"DADYMINDS BOX","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
