[This book] offers a close look at how Johnson handled the issues of civil rights, segregation, Vietnam, and an unruly economy, and demonstrates how these issues and events wore away Johnson's once robust idealism.-Back cover.
From preface: Samuel Adams occupied a unique place among the founders of the American republic. He lived through all of the events that lead to establishing a constitutional federal republic, and served as governor of one of the more important states in the young nation. Yet unlike Washington, Jefferson, and Madison, he was not an aristocratic landowner by family, nor a soldier or lawyer by profession. Nor did he stem from a line of well-to-do merchants like the leaders from New York or Rhode Island. William Fowler's lively book describes the long and eventful life of key figures [with special attention focused on Samuel Adams] in the development of the early republic. In doing so it also clarifies a significant aspect of American life.
