Pressezitat
“An excellent short biography.” —The Weekly Standard“Birzer rightly presents Carroll as the proper object of deep interest and admiration.” —First Things
“Birzer is one of today’s finest biographers. With meticulous scholarship, he places Charles Carroll back on the pedestal from which previous generations of neglectful historians had unceremoniously removed him.” —Joseph Pearce, author of Tolkien: Man and Myth and C. S. Lewis and the Catholic Church
“A sympathetic and engaging account of the man now best known as the only Catholic and the longest-lived among the signers of the Declaration of Independence . . . Clear, graceful prose . . . Learned, lively.” —Catholic Historical Review
“Birzer helps resurrect Carroll’s historical contributions . . . [and offers] an appreciation of Carroll as an influential thinker who helped establish American independence and legitimize Roman Catholicism in the United States.” —Columbia
“Birzer’s brilliant new book recaptures the fascinating life of Charles Carroll. Meticulously researched and engagingly written, American Cicero provides a fine-grained portrait of the critical decades that birthed the American Republic—and recovers the powerful role that Christian faith played in creating our political freedom.”
—Bruce S. Thornton, author of Greek Ways: How the Greeks Created Western Civilization
“Beautifully written. American Cicero restores an aristocrat and a patriot to his central importance in America’s Founding. Birzer allows this great leader to say things his fellow citizens need to hear today.” —E. Christian Kopff, director of the Center for Western Civilization
