Rabble Rouser.
I'm glad I read this book
This book is so good, it merits being in every classroom. The author has succeeded in making thereader understand the genius of Samual Adams of Boston. The type ofgrassroots politics practiced by Adams and other patriots, clearly is asvalid today as in theirs. Always focused upon the ultimate goal,"the last Puritan" was given the title by his peers of "thefather of American independence". Author Fradin has been successful inpointing out why Adams deserves the title. The story is breathtaking. IfI had one wish regarding this wonderful book, it would be that everyAmerican child hears or reads the story. They would be better Americans forit. Thanks to Dennis Fradin for writing it. I was so impressed with it,that after reading it I called the author to personally thank him.

Reintroducing young readers to the patriot, Samuel Adams The first chapter of this book introduces Samuel Adams as "The Man Who Started Fires," recalling the famous description of him by Lieutenant Governor Thomas Hutchinson as "the greatest incendiary in the Empire."Heinrichs develops the background of Adams and his distinguished Massachusetts family, including how the family brewery was lost after his father died in 1748.Chapter Two, "Stirring Up Trouble" covers the period up to the Boston Massacre, as Adams became a leader of the Sons of Liberty.Chapter Three, "Father of the Revolution," details his activities with the Committee of Correspondence and the first two Continental Congresses.The final chapter, "A New Nation Takes Shape," explains how Adams refused to attend the Constitutional Convention because he wanted the states to be stronger than the federal government.He even wanted to vote against his cousin in the 1796 election but was defeated in his effort to become a presidential elector. Hopefully this book will convince a fair share of young readers that Samuel Adams was an important Founding Father along with Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, and George Washington.Certainly Heinrichs makes the case for him being on that level, although for most people today he is considered the lesser of the two Adamses from Massachusetts.The volume is illustrated with paintings, etchings, and such from that period as well as a contemporary photograph of the statue of Samuel Adams in front of Boston's Faneuil Hall.There are sidebars on the Adams Family the Boston Massacre, and an Eyewitness Report on the Boston Tea Party, and you will find the usual Interesting Facts in the margins of the book. The Our People series, which excludes American presidents since they have their own series, also has volumes on Alexander Hamilton, Franklin, John Paul Jones, and Patrick Henry from this pivotal period of American history. ...

Out of the mouths of babes! The author (Wells) does a splendid job of weaving firsthand knowledge of his Grandfather (Adams) with historical fact. To say that Wells didn't lean toward the opinions of his Grandfather would be less than honest. However, after recently reading the story/biography of Samuel Adams written by Harlow, I am very glad I read Wells' account first. Adams was truly one of the last Puritans in his time and to allege anything about him beyond true Christian patriotism is completely false. In reading this book you will join the ranks of Joseph Warren, John Hancock and Josiah Quincy as they battle the most virulent British Administrations ever cast against our founding fathers as they battled for our God-given rights. Wells puts you at the scene of the massacre of March 5th and the backroom meetings of the Caucus club. You can almost see the fire in the fireplace that warms them as they steer a course toward independence. If you are a student of history and a patriot I highly recommend reading all three volumes. Signed, Determinatus
