When I signed up to review this book I had no idea what I was getting into. John Locke was such an inspiration to so many people. He knew Newton, as in Newton's laws!!! He played a part in everything our Country is founded on. Land, Religion, and of course the constitution. I learned about History in school, and John Hancock etc. However I never learned about the people behind the scenes that laid the foundation for what the Constitution would be. So many famous people got ideas from Locke, including famous Whigs, the New England Clergy, Pastors and anyone else you can imagine that had a role in the Writing of the Constitution.
John Locke also had an influence in Connecticut History! There is so much information in this book, that it took me the longest to read in awhile. I am sure I could read it again and still learn a bunch of new stuff. I liked that the author told you about something before she talked about how it related to John Locke. Also there was a few appendixes at the end that were very helpful as I read through the book. My only complaint is that it was too much information! I would definitely recommend this to history teachers and anyone that loves history!
