National Archives. In his book Declaration, author William Hogeland presents a vivid and thrilling account of the struggles that tipped the balance for independence in the weeks before the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Hogeland portrays the principal actors in the drama-Sam Adams, John Adams Thomas Paine, and a fascinating cast of lesser-known street radicals-and provides an analysis of events and a portrayal of the men who made America free. A book signing will follow the program, and the book is available at a discount from the Archives Shop.
