The Founders’ Fortunes: How Money Shaped the Birth of America

Focused on how Money Shaped the Birth of America, The Founders’ Fortunes brings Willard Randall's biographical portrait to a complex and consequential subject. Its account follows central actors and turning points while showing how the story reflects questions in the connected fields of biography & autobiography and history. Rather than isolating its subject, the book shows how private experience and public systems continually influenced one another. What emerges is a nuanced account of the subject, its immediate consequences, and its wider meaning.
