Founding Fathers
View groupThey are American icons—they're on our dollars and coins, they are the subject of our monuments, and we live our daily lives in the world their ideas helped create. They are the American “Founding Fathers”- Washington, Adams, Jefferson, Madison, Hamilton, and of course, we can’t forget Ben Franklin. These men, together with several other key players of their time, structured the American democracy and left a legacy that has shaped the world. But beyond their legends, these men were human beings who led complex and fascinating lives. Learning their stories helps us better understand what made them tick, and their influence on our world today.
