About

“Founding Partisans” by bestselling historian and Pulitzer Prize finalist H.W. Brands, is a revelatory history of the shocking emergence of vicious political division at the birth of the United States. A book signing and reception with complimentary beer, wine, and hors-d'oeuvres will take place after the lecture. To the framers of the Constitution, political parties were a threat to republican virtues. Yet parties emerged as the Founding Fathers fought one another with competing visions of what our nation would be.
