圖書名稱:Irreconcilable Differences

 Our Founding Fathers are the great men that won our independence, framed our founding documents, and set this nation in motion.

Discover who they were, what they believed, and why they were willing to pledge their lives, fortunes, and sacred honor in pursuit of America’s potential. A study of their lives is a study of the history of their times—a time that is the Founding Era.

This volume in The American Patriot Series spans the period of 1750-1776. It includes the exciting life stories of fifty of our Founding Fathers and chronicles how they came to grips with their Irreconcilable Differences with Great Britain.

Readers will benefit from the author’s extensive research. The facts revealed in these pages were derived almost exclusively from primary sourced material —and listed in the bibliography. Timeline and index are included.

 

Author Bio

Leslie Mironuck’s life journey has given him a unique perspective on America. He lived in Canada until 1986, viewing the United States from afar. However, he often visited his relatives who had settled in Missouri during the mid-1800s. After immigrating to the USA, he made St. Louis his home. He has since reconciled his various perspectives of America — as a foreigner, as a frequent visitor, and finally as a permanent resident. His reconciliation process included a self-guided study of American history. By birth, Mironuck has both US and Canadian citizenship.

Spending his formative years in Canada, Mironuck has always had a soft spot in his heart for Great Britain. That, coupled with his strong American roots has enabled him to paint a neutral, non-biased image of the historical events that motivated, shaped, and impacted the lives of the Founding Fathers. When his unique perspective is combined with his study of original sourced material, the result is a valuable series for students, educators, and history buffs.

Mironuck is much more interested in accuracy than he is in political correctness.

 

Reviews

“Through painstaking and detailed research of primary source documents, Leslie Mironuck has gathered, organized, and produced a superb collection of biographies for readers from middle school upward. . .. clearly shows how the founding fathers guided the framework of the government we have today. The reader will get insight to the individual effort of each founding father as details are shared that are typically omitted from today’s textbooks. I wish I had this resource when I started teaching. . . .” (Excerpt from Foreword)

— Jim Simmons, M.Ed., History teacher for 38 years, Mid-Del Schools, OK

 

“Leslie Mironuck takes readers on his journey of meticulous research to reveal little known facts about the early leaders of our country. Did you know: Joseph Hewes was even part of our history? Benjamin Franklin was one of seventeen children and Patrick Henry fathered seventeen? Israel Putnam’s military fame after the French and Indian War equaled that of George Washington? Most public school educators have been guilty of teaching only the high profile Founding Fathers like Hamilton and Jefferson because “there isn’t enough time.” The majority of the Founders have been ignored . . . until now. Mironuck thoughtfully reintroduces some of these forgotten leaders. It is a journey worth taking.”

— Lula Mae Hardman, M.Ed., Missouri Historical Society’s “Teacher of Merit”

 

“I love the concept of the book and how it focuses on individual Founders and their backgrounds. I especially like the fact that they are not all well known, but still have fascinating stories. Israel Putnam’s story was particularly interesting (that guy was really lucky!). The writer has a nice voice and makes the reading enjoyable without “dumbing it down” or becoming too academic. I think the book could be used in an Advanced Placement course.”  

— Timothy Thieke, High School AP History Teacher
