Legacy - James A. Michener - English

In this sweeping novel inspired by the Iran-Contra affair, master storyteller James A.

From a framer of the Constitution to a slave owner, from a Supreme Court justice to a courageous suffragist, each recalls an important legacy that Starr must somehow reconcile with his own perilous dilemma.
