Title: Wonderful insights on the back-story of the Declaration of Independance
Review: I am very interested in the founding of our nation. The role of the Declaration of Independence and the contribution of Thomas Jefferson are of particular interest to me. I like this book very much because it details the emergence of the Declaration form earlier documents and constitutions of the 13 colonies.Jefferson borrowed from his earlier writings as well as those of George Mason. Contributions of Franklin and Adams are frequently overlooked. And the masterful editing of the Congress was information that I was not familiar with.The best part of the book is the final chapters that detail the changing meaning of the Declaration over time. I liked reading about how the Declaration informed Lincoln's thinking. It is a good read for those of similar interests in the Revolution, American History, Jefferson and Lincoln.
