I am intrigued by how the author applied the Founding Fathers' speeches and conversations to contemporary times. I am curious to see how their ideals would hold up today and what we can learn from them. Congratulations on BOTD.

What would the Founding Fathers tell us today? That's food for thoughts and an interesting debate to have, with the media involved. I like that the author added some humour to the dialogue. Thank you for your review.

I have very little information about America's founding fathers so I would love to know more about how it all started. Understand their decision making process and how they had to set things in place for the people.

I like that the review mentions the focus of the Blacks Lives Matter Movement and that its mandate is to fight against racial prejudice. Also this is a good study into the history of the formation of a great country and the idealism that founded its spirit.

This book is not my cup of tea at all. It's an interesting story, I believe Americans would greatly enjoy it. But it's very controversial for me. I don't believe in the founding fathers or that america was freed from colonizers lol. It's very appropriate given the Thanksgiving period though.

History and politics has always been one of my strong suits, so combining both seems a lot to me. It sure sounds intriguing, interesting and fun to read. I hope I enjoy it. Thanks for the beautiful review by the way.

When people fade into history, they are often remembered for either their achievements and failures rather than an entire, whole human being, so it's refreshing that this book does this. Great review.

I love how the book is presented with some humor despite its political theme. I will like to get some glimpse into America Politics.

It's interesting to learn more about the history of America and its Founding Fathers. When compared to modern-day America, this is not the vision they had instilled in the country. As the timelines change, America needs to go back to its roots and look at how all these current issues can be resolved. Great review! And amazing work from the author, I appreciate the insight.

I have read and enjoyed this book in the past. I am excited to read it again and to share it with my older grandchildren as they homeschool. The lessons in this book about history and how to enjoy learning are valuable for us all. Thank you for your review. It was a bit confusing in spots and a bit uninformed, such as calling England the "colony" we separated from, and the first sentence, "The 18th century was presumably the most revolutionary time for America because it was formed then," is confusing.

An interesting view point on American politics as it has evolved from its inception till up to date. I also like that the book explores the future politics of the USA as a nation.

It is such a pity that the once American'soldiers dream where people have equal rights is gradually fading away. I think this book would be a nice read as it will help us remember where we are coming from. Nice review, congrats on BOTD.

I feel the author did a good job and as much as it's a historical book, the author made the conversation seem contemporary. I love the review. Congratulations on BOTD
