John Adams did not hesitate to lead his countrymen into revolution, but when other advocates of American independence devoted themselves solely to tearing down British tyranny, Adams kept asking, "Then what?" Asking - and answering - this question was for him the key to managing revolutionary change successfully, for the present and for the ages. A prime mover and architect of American independence, collaborator in the creation of America's first army as well as founder of the U. S. Navy, John Adams negotiated the foreign finance that made the Revolution possible, then he negotiated the treaties that ended it in absolute victory. A steward of justice and liberty, Adams was instrumental in building a government of laws, not men. He believed that power drove all people, all nations, and all enterprises, and that the purpose of good government was to manage power-not by attempting to deny or suppress it, but by using one power to balance another. This was the art and science of revolutionary management. No library descriptions found. |

Axelrod writes well and the 1 page per quote approach makes it an easy book to dip in and out of. ( )
