Collection of works by Samuel Adams, an eighteenth century statesman, political philosopher, and one of the Founding Fathers of the United States. Harry Alfonzo Gushing, who collected and edited the volume, says: The writings of no one of the leaders of the American Revolution form a more complete expression of the causes and justification of that movement than do those of Samuel Adams. None of his contemporaries was so closely identified with the agitation which preceded that crisis, or display
...ed at that time greater facility as a writer or more unqualified devotion to public affairs. In both the politics and the literature of the American Revolution his writings constitute a distinct and essential element.
