ebooks Letters of the Late Ignatius Sancho; an African (Broadview Editions) by Ignatius Sancho in History

Description

Drafted by Thomas Jefferson between June 11 and June 28; 1776; the Declaration of Independence summarizes America's founding political philosophy. At once a cherished symbol of liberty and an expression of Jefferson's monumental talents as a writer; the document captures in unforgettable phrases the ideals of individual liberty that formed the backbone of American's Revolutionary movement. In setting forth these "self-evident truths" alongside a list of grievances against King George's Britain; the Declaration of Independence justified the breaking of ties with "Mother England" and the formation of a new country. This gift edition; printed in two colors on acid-free paper; contains illustrations and biographies of the signers alongside the document itself.
