"Patrick Henry is the best short biography we have of a much misunderstood patriot, too often overshadowed by the brilliance of his own electrifying oratory. John Ragosta's elegant and judicious account of Henry's career as a statesman and lawyer restores the great Revolutionary to his proper place in the American pantheon."
Peter S. Onuf, Thomas Jefferson Professor of History Emeritus, University of Virginia
"Best remembered for his phrase 'Give me liberty, or give me death,' Patrick Henry was one of the earliest to lead the patriot movement against Britain. Like Sam Adams, he never attained the posthumous celebrity of the other founders primarily because of his opposition to the creation of a strong central government and his refusal to accept national office. Aimed at college students and young adults, this is an excellent account of his role and contribution whose study offers a very different perspective of one who opposed many of the developments of the early national period including the separation of church and state. Nevertheless, he had a major influence on the course of events and his words continue to inspire."
Andrew O'Shaughnessy, Vice President of the Thomas Jefferson Foundation
"Both literate and succinct, John A. Ragosta's Patrick Henry: Proclaiming a Revolution ably recounts the familiar contours of Henry's fame as an orator and 'consummate lawyer' while also recognizing his character as 'not only a great orator, but a seasoned politician, an accomplished lawyer, a loving father, and a patriot'"
