Drawing on his father's memories of World War II unity, career prosecutor Dee R. Edgeworth examines the civic virtues that made America strong. Through vivid episodes—Washington at Dorchester Heights, Abigail Adams during the siege of Boston, Franklin at the Cockpit, and John Quincy Adams at the Amistad trial—he shows fortitude, fidelity, prudence, and justice in action. He then surveys the decline of trust, community, and faith today, calling readers to reclaim the high ground of virtue in their own lives.
- Seven true stories of the Founders under pressure—and the virtues that won the day
- The little-known moment George Washington stopped a military coup with a pair of eyeglasses
- Written by a 35-year career prosecutor who saw firsthand what happens when integrity erodes
- A hopeful answer to America's crisis of trust, drawn from the men and women who built the republic
“It is better to occupy and maintain the high ground than to reclaim it.”
Perfect for a patriotic adult reader who loves American history and biography and is concerned about the moral and civic health of the nation.
