 Amazon.fr : Founding Brothers: The Revolutionary Generation: Livres en anglais: Joseph J. Ellis   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
In Founding Brothers, Joseph J. Ellis reveals that many of those truths we hold to be self-evident were actually fiercely contested in the early days of the republic.
Ellis focuses on six crucial moments in the life of the new nation, including a secret dinner at which the seat of the nation's capital was determined--in exchange for support of Hamilton's financial plan; Washington's precedent-setting Farewell Address; and the Hamilton and Burr duel.
Throughout the text, Ellis explains the personal, face-to-face nature of early American politics--and notes that the members of the revolutionary generation were conscious of the fact that they were establishing precedents on which future generations would rely.

 Ellis doesn't want to revisit his own past
Ellis is also the beneficiary of a 20-city national book tour and is basking in a host of favorable reviews for "His Excellency," most of which make no mention of his past travails.
Ellis immediately apologized for his actions, disappeared from public view, devoted himself to a quiet private period of soul-searching that lasted six months, followed by work on his new biography of Washington.
Ellis insists that this definitely is not the case, that one of the effects of the scandal was to turn microscopic attention on all his books and none of these examinations turned up errors or misstatements.

 Harvard Book Review
Ellis describes the Revolutionary War as the "central event in Washington's life." It is therefore quite appropriate that the war is treated in two central chapters, the most prominent place in the book.
Only here does Ellis struggle to separate the later myth from the contemporary man. He attempts to dispel the belief developed in retrospect, that victory was destined from the start, in favor of a more pragmatic description of how easily the tide could have turned.
Ellis uses these portraits as both historical starting points for his narrative and a stylistic paradigm to follow.

Ellis repeatedly informs us what the world was like in the 1790's, when there was little historical precedence for a republican style of government or a biracial society.
Ellis doesn't just tell us that "they [all the major players] were making it up as they went along, improvising on the edge of catastrophe," he makes us feel it.
Ellis' explanations of the vastly different ideas that the founders had concerning what kind of government the new country should have and how to achieve it were captivating.

An illuminating study of the intertwined lives of the founders of the American republic—John Adams, Aaron Burr, Benjamin Franklin, Alexander Hamilton, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, and George Washington.
During the 1790s, which Ellis calls the most decisive decade in our nation's history, the greatest statesmen of their generation—and perhaps any—came together to define the new republic and direct its course for the coming centuries.
Ellis argues that the checks and balances that permitted the infant American republic to endure were not primarily legal, constitutional, or institutional, but intensely personal, rooted in the dynamic interaction of leaders with quite different visions and values.
