Resumen del Editor
A major biography of the Marquis de Lafayette, French hero of the American Revolution, looks past the storybook general and selfless champion of righteous causes who, at the age of 19, volunteered to fight under George Washington, casting aside fortune and family (from one of France's oldest families; his ancestors served in the Crusades and alongside Joan of Arc) to advance the transcendent aims of liberty and justice.
We see how Lafayette's reputation rose to great heights during the American Revolution, but collapsed more than a decade later during the French Revolution; how when the Bastille fell on July 14, 1789, Parisians hailed Lafayette as the French Washington, appointing him commander of their National Guard in the hope that he would be able to restore order to a city wracked by starvation and violence. As revolutionaries hurtled in radical directions and staunch monarchists dug in their heels, Lafayette lost control, remaining steadfast in his belief that the French monarchy needed to be reformed, but not abolished, and doing everything in his power to prevent an American-style republic from taking root in his native land. Formerly seen as France's heroic figure, he was now a traitor to his nation, forced to flee his country, and today remains a murky figure in French memory.

Called a great book worthy of a great man, this definitive biography of the Commander in Chief of the Pacific Fleet in World War II is considered the best book ever written about Admiral Chester W. Nimitz. Highly respected by both the civilian and naval communities, Nimitz was sometimes overshadowed by more colorful warriors in the Pacific such as MacArthur and Halsey. Potter's lively and authoritative style fleshes out Admiral Nimitz's personality to help listeners appreciate the contributions he made as the principle architect of Japan's defeat.

At age 24 Winston Churchill was utterly convinced it was his destiny to become prime minister of England one day, despite the fact he had just lost his first election campaign for Parliament. He believed that to achieve his goal, he had to do something spectacular on the battlefield. Despite deliberately putting himself in extreme danger as a British army officer in colonial wars in India and Sudan and as a journalist covering a Cuban uprising against the Spanish, glory and fame had eluded him.

Caesar Augustus's story, one of the most riveting in western history, is filled with drama and contradiction, risky gambles and unexpected success. He began as a teenage warlord, whose only claim to power was as the heir of the murdered Julius Caesar. Mark Antony dubbed him "a boy who owes everything to a name," but in the years to come the youth outmaneuvered all the older and more experienced politicians and was the last man standing in 30 BC.

In this engrossing narrative he recounts early years of abuse; his dramatic escape to the North and eventual freedom, abolitionist campaigns, and his crusade for full civil rights for former slaves.

John Quincy Adams was the last of his kind - a Puritan from the age of the Founders who despised party and compromise yet dedicated himself to politics and government. The son of John Adams, he was a brilliant ambassador and secretary of state, a frustrated president at a historic turning point in American politics, and a dedicated congressman who literally died in office - at the age of 80, in the House of Representatives, in the midst of an impassioned political debate.

But Black Elk was not a warrior, and instead chose the path of a healer and holy man, motivated by a powerful prophetic vision that haunted and inspired him.

As founding fathers, they risked their lives for American independence, but they also wanted more. Each wished for profound changes in the political and social fabric of pre-1776 America and hoped that the American Revolution would spark republican and egalitarian revolutions throughout Europe, sweeping away the old aristocratic order. Ultimately, each rejoiced at the opportunity to be a part of the French Revolution, a cause that became increasingly untenable as idealism gave way to the bloody terror.

The story of Napoleon has been written many times. In some versions, he is a military genius, in others a war-obsessed tyrant. Here, historian Adam Zamoyski cuts through the mythology and explains Napoleon against the background of the European Enlightenment and what he was himself seeking to achieve. This most famous of men is also the most hidden of men, and Zamoyski dives deeper than any previous biographer to find him. Beautifully written, Napoleon brilliantly sets the man in his European context.

"In December of 1776 a small boat delivered an old man to France." So begins an enthralling account of how Benjamin Franklin - 70 years old, without any diplomatic training, and possessed of the most rudimentary French - convinced France, an absolute monarchy, to underwrite America's experiment in democracy. When Franklin stepped onto French soil, he understood he was embarking on the greatest gamble of his career. By virtue of fame, charisma, and ingenuity, Franklin outmaneuvered British spies, French informers, and hostile colleagues....

John Quincy Adams was the last of his kind - a Puritan from the age of the Founders who despised party and compromise yet dedicated himself to politics and government. The son of John Adams, he was a brilliant ambassador and secretary of state, a frustrated president at a historic turning point in American politics, and a dedicated congressman who literally died in office - at the age of 80, in the House of Representatives, in the midst of an impassioned political debate.

Historians have long told the story of America’s birth as the triumph of Jefferson’s democratic ideals over the aristocratic intentions of Hamilton. Chernow presents an entirely different man, whose legendary ambitions were motivated not merely by self-interest but by passionate patriotism and a stubborn will to build the foundations of American prosperity and power.

John Adams told Thomas Jefferson that “history is to ascribe the American Revolution to Thomas Paine.” Thomas Edison called him “the equal of Washington in making American liberty possible.” He was a founder of both the United States and the French Revolution. He invented the phrase, “The United States of America.” He rose from abject poverty in working-class England to the highest levels of the era’s intellectual elite. And yet, by the end of his life, Thomas Paine was almost universally reviled.

Historia
Told from multiple points of view - including those of James and Dolley Madison and a British admiral - this is the true story of the burning of the White House in 1814. It's unimaginable today, even for a generation that saw the Twin Towers fall and the Pentagon attacked. It's unimaginable because in 1814, enemies didn't fly overhead; they marched through the streets, and for 26 hours in August, the British enemy marched through Washington, DC, and set fire to government buildings, including the US Capitol and the White House.

Chief minister to King Louis XIII, Cardinal Richelieu was the architect of a new France in the 17th century, and the force behind the nation's rise as a European power. Among the first statesmen to clearly understand the necessity of a balance of powers, he was one of the early realist politicians, practicing in the wake of Niccol Machiavelli. Truly larger than life, he has captured the imagination of generations, both through his own story and through his portrayal as a ruthless political mastermind in Alexandre Dumas's classic The Three Musketeers.

When the Marquis de Lafayette ran off to join the American Revolution against the explicit orders of the king of France, he was a strong-willed 19-year-old who had never set foot on a battlefield. Although the U.S. Congress granted him an honorary commission only out of respect for his title and wealth, Lafayette quickly earned the respect of his fellow officers with his bravery, devotion to the cause of liberty, and incredible drive. Playing a pivotal role in the Revolution, he led his men to victory at Yorktown.

Jefferson first met Lafayette in 1781, when the young French-born general was dispatched to Virginia to assist Jefferson, then the state’s governor, in fighting off the British. The charismatic Lafayette, hungry for glory, could not have seemed more different from Jefferson, the reserved statesman.

In the summer of 1804, two of America's most eminent statesmen squared off, pistols raised, on a bluff along the Hudson River. That two such men would risk not only their lives but the stability of the young country they helped forge is almost beyond comprehension. Yet we know that it happened.

Bio on a Rare Character
The Marquis is a very interesting character in two worlds and this is a great biography. I would recommend leading this off with a good history of the French Revolution or it is easy to get lost in the context of what is happening.

Lafayette: A Hit Abroad! & A Miss at Home!
Would you listen to Marquis again? Why?
Yes! Because I am a history buff and I like to think what might have been if this or that had changed.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Adrienne Lafayette: She demonstrated remarkable fidelity, loyalty, and courage in the face of adversity.
Which scene was your favorite?
When Lafayette guided the Queen of France out onto the balcony at Versailles and with a bit of political theater of kissing her hand held out the prospect of a peaceful resolution and avoided a full scale bloodbath.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
No extreme reaction. No laughter or crying. I do think that if men had behaved better and allowed Lafayette's conciliation to work a constitutional monarchy rather then a bloodbath could have emerged.
Any additional comments?
The following are my general impressions of the insights I gained after listening to this book. Obviously there is more of value to harvest then what I can covey in these few fleeting paragraphs. In this impressionistic approach I choose not to cover all the details in the book. I hope to give you an appetite to know more about this complex man by hitting these few highlights. I highly recommend that you give it a good listen or read.
General, Marquis de Lafayette is remembered in the United States with public parks, equestrian statues, and public building / street named after him too numerous to count. He is an interwoven part of our national fabric. However, in France, his birth place and home his honor is a nul, a zero, a rien. There is only one bust hidden away in the dark recesses of the Palace of Versailles to mark his place on French history. This mystery of two different perceptions of a good man’s life work is the motivating force for Ms. Auricchio biography.
As a 19 year old nobleman, Lafayette was considered much too unsophisticated to really fit in at the Royal Court in Versailles. Having his future prospects for advancement at court blighted by a lack in the social graces and connections what is a young ambitious nobleman from a proud old military family to do? Why go where the action is and make his name and fame. The action was in America; so that is where he took himself. He outfitted transportation at his own expense, raised and paid for a military unit, and presented himself and his unit to Congress in Philadelphia asking that he be commissioned a General in the revolutionary army. One thing the folks in Congress knew on sight was a bargain. Plus he also came with fresh news from the continent and back channel connections to the French aristocracy and government. What a bargain! Make him a General, why not?
Congress appointed Lafayette a General and sent him off to General Washington to see if he has any use for this untried warrior. Fortunately, General Washington knew raw talent and made him his aid de camp and member of his staff. Under such tutelage Lafayette’s pent up nascent military talent burst into bloom and bore good fruit. The give and take between these two dynamic personalities evolved into a pseudo father and son relationship; this is evidenced by Lafayette naming his actual son after his beloved benefactor.
His backchannel contacts to the French aristocracy proved valuable to other revolutionaries like Franklin and Madison. These relationships and bonds so closely forged in service to the American revolutionary elite in this country, will eventually help save his bacon when he ends up on the wrong side of the fence of the French revolution.
In France, Lafayette was a moderate conciliator in a time of extremes; he supported a constitutional monarchy; he wanted to serve as a bridge of understanding and enlightenment between the seething masses and out of touch elite like Louis XVI. He might have pulled this role of conciliator off had it not been for the ill-fated decision of Louis XVI to try and escape France when he was technically under guard and the protection of Lafayette at the Tuileries Palace following the march from the fallen Bestial to Versailles. It was there that Lafayette had gained acclaim by persuading the monarchs Louie and Marie to return to Paris under his protection and guard. However, when the King and Queen took a powder it left Lafayette with egg on his face and his credibility with the public in tatters in the metaphorical bag they left him holding. No one believed Lafayette was not in on the failed escape plan. The decision to run eventually cost the monarchs their heads.
The forces tarring France apart, stoked by blind admission of lesser men, were too powerful to contain through moderation and in the end Lafayette satisfied neither side and failed. When the scamming plots of others further damaged his credibility and it was clear he and his families lives were endanger, it was then that he left France one step ahead of the Guillotine. Once he crossed the border into Belgium he was perceived by the counter revolutionary monarchist’s relatives of Louie XVI as a traitor to his class and clapped away safely in prison to languish away and die.
Enter Lafayette’s wife Adrienne onto the stage of history. Until that point her only significant contribution was the barring of Lafayette’s four children. Lafayette’s friends in America and else ware were sufficient to see that he was not outright killed by the monarchist. However, a fragile new American country did not have the pull to spring him free from jail without risking a war. Adrienne after first seeing that her children were placed safely with others for their care, petitioned the Austrian Emperor to join her husband in prison. As she and her beloved languished in prison and she became ill, she also became a cause celeb in the salons of Europe resulting in both his and her release. In this way, with these courageous actions she shamed Lafayette’s friends and contacts into action thus saving her husband’s bacon. The monarchist might have been quite content to allow a man out of favor to languish, sicken, and die in prison but to condemn such a noblewoman to the same fate would have been a scandal and a blot on their honor. Having been weakened by her prison illnesses Adrienne preceded her husband in death at age 48 while he lived on to age 77.

Power of joy in life
William Morris is a Victorian giant known as the father of Arts and Crafts Movement. He is also renowned as a socialist thinker and a poet.
His diatribe against the wrongdoing of his era tends to quickly get tedious and the remedies for it often sound fanciful. However, you are treated to a view of his genuine passions and joys throughout the book. His affection for the landscapes and the architectures of England along with that for people and the arts are genuinely uplifting.
The description of the protagonist's abrupt loss of the newly acquainted utopia remains haunting.
