Winner, Gold Award in the Adult Books Category, The Mom's Choice Awards

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. A timeline and an index are included.

Author Biography

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.
