TöbbHosszú leírás:
The Marquis de Lafayette is an icon of American—and French—history. Lafayette's life story is the stuff of legend. Born into an aristocratic French family of warriors, made lieutenant in the French Royal Guard at age 14, and married into the royal family at 16, he traveled to the colonies at his own expense to fight in the American Revolution. By age 20, he was embraced by George Washington and Thomas Jefferson, who became his life-long friends. Here, historian Marc Leepson delivers an insightful account of the great general, whose love of liberty and passionate devotion to American and French independence shines in the pages of history

Praise for Desperate Engagement: How a Little-Known Civil War Battle Saved Washington, D.C., and Changed American History:
"In this book we find ourselves firmly implanted in the land of what might have been . . . Desperate Engagement will (of course) be of interest to Civil War buffs, whose numbers remain legion nearly a century and a half after the war's end, and to many other readers as well. Wondering about what might have been is . . . an instructive, useful game that deepens our understanding of history's uncertain, unpredictable path." - Washington Post
"Leepson lucidly narrates the campaign . . . A hard-fought, dramatic episode that Leepson brings vividly to life." - Publishers Weekly
