Thank you. Our founders lived loudly for liberty. I am flying to California today to record a video on one of our founders.

Thank you. I am currently writing a book for 9-12 year-olds called The Submarine and the Spies. It is fictionalized history of the American Revolution for America's 250th.

Thank you for retelling this story of boldness. It's quite a tale. Would you please help me with the logic of the reluctance expressed in this sentence ?:

"Many Americans were fearful of French adventurers because the English had fought the French in a war in the 1750s."

Was it because of how the French had acquitted themselves in the previous war? Thank you in advance for any elaboration you provide here.
