In a series of biographical sketches, Myron Magnet reviews some of America's founders writings about life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness and also shows how they lived and how the homes they designed reflected the ideals they claimed for themselves and desired for their fellow countrymen.


Individual profiles of William Livingston, Arthur Lee, Henry Lee, Richard Henry Lee, George Washington, John Jay, Alexander Hamilton, Thomas Jefferson, and James Madison include detailed descriptions of their hearths and home.
