200 Years ago a Philadelphia newspaper claimed George Washington wasnt the "father of his country." It claimed John Adams really wanted to be king. Its editors were arrested by the federal government. One editor died awaiting trial. The story of this newspaper is the story of America. In this monumental story of two newspaper editors whom Presidents Washington and Adams sought to jail for sedition, American Aurora offers a new and heretical vision of this nations beginnings, from the vantage point of those who fought in the American Revolution to create a democracy--and lost.
