In this historical classic, Dan Sisson provides the definitive window into key concepts that have formed the backdrop to US democracy: the nature of revolution, stewardship of power, liberty, and the ever-present danger of factions and tyranny. Sisson's book makes clear that key ideas of the American Revolution did not reach their full fruition until the "Revolution of 1800", to which Americans owe the preservation of many key rights.
