{"product_id":"9780465028108","title":"Patrick Henry: First Among Patriots","description":"Most Americans know Patrick Henry as a fiery speaker whose pronouncement \"Give me liberty or give me death!\" rallied American defiance to the British Crown. But Henry's skills as an orator -- sharpened in the small towns and courtrooms of colonial Virginia -- are only one part of his vast, but largely forgotten, legacy. As historian Thomas S. Kidd shows, Henry cherished a vision of America as a virtuous republic with a clearly circumscribed central government. These ideals brought him into bitter conflict with other Founders and were crystallized in his vociferous opposition to the U.S. Constitution.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In \u003ci\u003ePatrick Henry\u003c\/i\u003e, Kidd pulls back the curtain on one of our most radical, passionate Founders, showing that until we understand Henry himself, we will neglect many of the Revolution's animating values.","brand":"Basic Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47111210860784,"sku":"9780465028108","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780465028108_p0.jpg?v=1763705912","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780465028108","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
