LISTEN: Town Talk/Author Chris Mackowski

Atlas of Independence: John Adams and the American Revolution offers a vivid, ground-level look at the fight for independence as Chris Mackowski explores his work with the Emerging Revolutionary War series. He examines how John Adams became one of the Revolution’s most forceful voices—driving the case for independence in the Continental Congress. The discussion also pulls back the curtain on Adams as a person.  Chris talks about the challenges of writing about the Revolutionary era today.
