Do yourself a favor and purchase every book Kiernan has written. It’ll make you proud to be an American. This terrific book, co-written with D’Agnese, chronicles what happened to the 56 signers of the Declaration of Independence. Spoiler alert: a lot of bad stuff. Good reminder for Americans who are divided over trivial things to remember those who gave their lives, liberties and happiness for us. We owe them a lot.
