The present often breaks into fragments of antique myths. Lying and backstabbing in politicians’ quest for power is as old as our ancestors first walking the earth. The colonists plowed the ground for rebellion, the field of liberty needing cultivation.
“The Men Who Choose Liberty is a vividly dramatized account of the foundations of our democracy. It is especially timely today, when those foundations are under assault by the enemies of freedom, democracy and the Constitution under which our liberties are defined and protected. This is a rousing good book, a necessary book, a book that offers a reminder of just how much we have to lose.”
T.C. Boyle

The book is an exposé of six founders from their youth to the summer of 1775 at Cambridge, Mass., and how they became patriots, choosing liberty while rejecting subjection to England, the world’s strongest nation.
The man who stood revered in the county of Hanover, Virginia, took a step back at the Shelton Tavern in 1766 and chuckled when he heard his son’s name, Patrick Henry, mentioned from a table nestled by a crackling fire. The face of the sixty-two-year-old John Henry, the county surveyor, colonel of his regiment, and presiding judge of the county court, lit like the dawn. He called out across the room to the group of men chatting by the fire.
Author Bio
When not writing to classical music Seth Irving Handaside (aka Neal W. Friedman) spends his time looking for lost tidbits of early American history and has found several that are in his historical fiction novel. One of his diversions from history is writing Haiku and he is a sucker for his favorite football and basketball teams. A New York native, he does not miss the cold winter or muggy summers and enjoys the temperate climate of the Bay area. He loves to bake loaves of bread and make pies from scratch. He believes a proper view of history can make a difference and wants to “inspire and empower the younger generation.” His most worn book is the Constitution of the United States.
