The twin strands of liberty and slavery, joined at the nation's founding, have proven a collective inheritance of painful, challenging consequence down to the present day. In this incisive history of the founding period, Edward J. Larson examines the intricate bonds between liberty and slavery as they developed through the independence movement, the war against Britain, the debates over the Constitution, and the formation of a national government in the Washington administration. At last here is a history of the founding that fully includes Black Americans in all phases and directly accounts the origins of the distinctive American inheritance.
