In a time when The united states is desperately looking for leadership comes this inspiring story of James Madison’s coming of age, providing incisive and original insight into the Founding Father who did the most but is known the least.
Michael Signer takes a fresh have a look at the life of our fourth president. His center of attention is on Madison before he turned thirty-six, the years during which he did his most enduring work: battling with Patrick Henry—the most charismatic politician in revolutionary The united states, whose political philosophy and ruthless tactics eerily foreshadowed those of lately’s Tea Party—over religious freedom; introducing his framework for a strong central government; becoming the intellectual godfather of the Constitution; and providing a a very powerful role at Virginia’s convention to ratify the Constitution in 1788, when the nation’s future hung in the balance.
Signer’s young James Madison is a role model for the leaders so badly needed lately: a man who overcame daunting personal issues (including crippling anxiety attacks) to battle an entrenched and vicious status quo. Michael Signer’s brilliant analysis of “Madison’s Method,” the means in which Madison systematically destroyed dangerous ideas and left in their stead a long-lasting and positive vision for america, is wholly original and uniquely relevant lately.
