Synopsis
In a single, thrilling narrative, Gaines tells the story of the American and French Revolutions--and their leaders--and provides fascinating insights into George Washington and Marquis de Lafayette and their personal transformations., On April 18, 1775, a riot over the price of flour broke out in the French city of Dijon. That night, across the Atlantic, Paul Revere mounted the fastest horse he could find and kicked it into a gallop.So began what have been called the sister revolutions of France and America. In a single, thrilling narrative, this book tells the story of those revolutions and shows just how deeply intertwined they actually were. Their leaders, George Washington and the Marquis de Lafayette, were often seen as father and son, but their relationship, while close, was every bit as complex as the long, fraught history of the French-American alliance. Vain, tough, ambitious, they strove to shape their characters and records into the form they wanted history to remember. James R. Gaines provides fascinating insights into these personal transformations and is equally brilliant at showing the extraordinary effect of the two freedom fighters on subsequent history., On April 18, 1775, a riot over the price of flour broke out in the French city of Dijon.

- e***s (6)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufSeller promptly responded to inquiries with the requested information. Provided images of the condition of the product. Dust jacket slightly beaten up - to be expected. Complete absence of defects inside the book apart from a slight defect on the corner of the front page. Was shipped in good time, but shipping was costly (although it was shipped from the US to UK). Overall, very happy with both the product and the seller. I would buy from this seller again.Hitler, 1936-1945 Vol. 2 : Nemesis by Ian Kershaw (2000, Hardcover) S6 (Nr. 296053884818)
