New audiobook release: Biographical Sketches of the Signers of the Declaration of American Independence

This book has some really important sections in it which are not biographies at all, but a 1-by-1 explanation of what each grievance in the Declaration is in reference to. That makes this audio book surely one of a kind in that regard.

As for the biographies, most as audio are inbetween 5 to 10 minutes, giving a brief overview of all of these wonderful people. Some Founding Fathers never received a major biographical work until somewhat more recently, such as George Wythe. I will be dead before those ever reach copyright expiration so I'll never be able to have brought through LibriVox. That means for many Founders, this short biography you will hear is the only you will ever hear until someone else takes the time to have those created.

Yes, whatever its title is - I can’t bother checking now since we’re in the middle of estate stuff including clearing our house to move into the estate house - which means, LOTS and LOTS of books in both houses. Still lots, despite many sales and many donations! Anyway, I was just getting sick when making that comment, so I have not bothered much on-line since Wednesday. Each volume is very big, I know that.

Just a FRiendly ping...........

I saw a recent post of yours that had me think you might be interested in this sort of new work. (print or the new audio format)

No reply needed if you prefer.

You used the word "solution"; I looked at your profile and saw you've been here at FR since the late 90s. I read through a handful of your other replies and saw you frequently mention the Founding Fathers, I happen to think you may appreciate this audio book we created.

Biographical Sketches of the Signers of the Declaration of American Independence Written in 1858, Lossing gives a short biography of every single signer, a description of the Constitution, with a lengthy in-depth discussion of the Declaration of Independence and most importantly, step by step of what each grievance means.

Since its release it has had nearly 6 thousand downloads. Another we created about John Hancock has had over 40,000 downloads and a 3 volume set written by Mercy Otis Warren has had around 80,000 downloads. And we have over a dozen others.

The word "solution" is a word that rings very loudly to me, but that's because I'm not the average person who sits and does nothing but complain.

I educate. And I educate a lot - with the numbers to prove it.

Do I want anything from you? No. Nothing. I hope you will enjoy the audio book. I think it came out really well.
