Friends of Liberty: Thomas Jefferson, Thaddeus Kosciuszko, and Agrippa Hull : A Tale of Three Patriots, Two Revolutions, and a Tragic Betrayal of Freedom in the New Natio

Friends of Liberty tells the remarkable story of three men whose lives were braided together by issues of liberty and race that fueled revolutions across two continents. Thomas Jefferson wrote the founding documents of the United States. Thaddeus Kosciuszko was a hero of the American Revolution and later led a spectacular but failed uprising in Poland, his homeland. Agrippa Hull, a freeborn black New Englander, volunteered at eighteen to join the Continental Army.--From publisher description.
