    by Edmund S. Morgan
  • Publication Details

    Book, University Press of Virginia, 1976

    Through this perspective, Morgan examines the growth of independence from its initial declaration and discovers something of its meaning, for three men who responded to its challenge and for the nation that they helped create. ‘The Meaning of Independence,’ first published in 1976, has become one of the standard short works on the first three presidents of the United States — George Washington, John Adams, and Thomas Jefferson.
