SUMMARY:Author's Talk -  King Hancock: The Radical Influence of a Moderate Founding Father
DESCRIPTION:John Hancock is often associated with the radical commencement of the Revolution and his audacious signature at the bottom of the Declaration of Independence\, but his politics were not nearly as bold as they may have seemed. Throughout the Revolution\, he frustrated both patriots and loyalists alike but remained the most popular and powerful man in Massachusetts through his ability to find middle ground amidst political turmoil. In her new book\, historian Brooke Barbier examines the life and leadership of Hancock\, whose steadying force and compromise proved the basis of profound social and political change. \nRegistration is requested.
