Maggiori informazioni sul libro

A prominent figure in early American politics, John Randolph of Roanoke was a powerful orator and staunch advocate for states' rights, agricultural interests, and limited government. Elected to Congress at just twenty-six, he became a leading voice against both Jeffersonians and Federalists. His passionate belief in liberty over equality defined his legacy. This fourth edition includes corrections and new material, such as a firsthand account of his death by Dr. Joseph Parrish, providing insights into the man behind the political persona.
