Please join us for our non-fiction historical book discussion. This month's title is: Founding Partisans: Hamilton, Madison, Jefferson, Adams and the Brawling Birth of American Politics by H. W. Brands.
Though the Constitution's framers viewed political parties as dangerous, they quickly took root in the new republic. In Founding Partisans, historian H.W. Brands explores how early leaders like Hamilton, Madison, Jefferson, and Adams clashed over competing visions for America. From the rise of the Federalists and Antifederalists to bitter elections and constitutional disputes, this vivid narrative reveals that intense partisanship has been part of America’s story since the beginning.
