“A fresh, arresting history of the American Revolution as people lived it: facing forward. Molly Beer recovers the suspense, perils, and dazzling possibilities of the era, and her lapidary prose and keen sense of character bring Angelica Schuyler Church, her family, and her world to vivid, unforgettable life, making a great global event into a family drama, and vice versa.” - Jane Kamensky, president of Monticello/The Thomas Jefferson Foundation and author of A Revolution in Color.

Noted historian and landscape architect Todd Longstaffe-Gowan will examine gardens that range from the capital’s humble allotments and defunct squares to amateur botanical gardens, princely pleasure grounds, artists’ gardens, and private menageries.
