    H-New-Jersey Fea on Morrison, 'John Witherspoon and the Founding of the American Republic' Review published on Saturday, April 1, 2006 Jeffry H. Morrison. John Witherspoon and the Founding of the American Republic. Notre Dame: University of Notre Dame Press, 2005. xviii + 220 pp. $22.50 (cloth), ISBN 978-0-268-03485-6. Reviewed by John Fea (Department of History, Messiah College) Published on H-New-Jersey (April, 2006) The Forgotten Founding Father? Americans love their "founding fathers." As most academics continue to write books that address questions related to race, class, and gender in early America, popular historians and writers (and even a few rebellious academics such as Joseph Ellis or H.W. Brands) make their way onto bestseller lists with biographies of the dead white men who were major players in America's revolutionary struggle. These include David McCullough on John Adams, Ronald Chernow on Alexander Hamilton, Ellis on George Washington, and a host of Benjamin Franklin biographies (recent works by Walter Isaacson, Edmund Morgan, Gordon Wood, Brands, and Stacy Schiff come to mind) written to coincide with the tercentenary of his birth. One of the so-called founding fathers yet to receive a recent full-length biography is John Witherspoon, the president of the College of New Jersey at Princeton during the American Revolution and the only colonial clergyman to sign the Declaration of Independence.[1] Witherspoon was a prominent evangelical Presbyterian minister in Scotland before becoming the sixth president of Princeton in 1768. Upon his arrival, he transformed a college designed predominantly to train clergymen into a school that would equip the leaders of a revolutionary generation.

    NJS: An Interdisciplinary Journal Summer 2017 269 John Witherspoon’s American Revolution Gideon Mailer Chapel Hill: University of North Carolina Press, for the Omohundro Institute of Early American History and Culture, 2017 440 pages $45.00 ISBN: 978-1469628189 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.14713/njs.v3i2.92 On December 7, 1776, a British army brigade entered Nassau Hall, the primary building on the campus of the College of New Jersey at Princeton, and used it as a barracks and horse stable. The troops occupied this building, one of the largest in British colonial America, until George Washington’s Continental Army arrived on January 3, 1777 and drove them out of town at the Battle of Princeton. One British officer stationed in Nassau Hall would later write, “Our army when we lay there spoiled and plundered a good Library….” The damaged library belonged to Reverend John Witherspoon, the president of the college, who had fled Princeton for his own protection shortly before the arrival of British soldiers. Earlier in 1776, John Witherspoon sat in the Pennsylvania State House as a member of the New Jersey delegation to the Continental Congress. We know that he played a major role in Congress, but the destruction of his papers have prevented historians from writing the kinds of magisterial biographies of him like those published on George Washington, John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, or Thomas Jefferson. Historians do have, however, Witherspoon’s extensive published writings, allowing them to explore the depths of his religious and political thought. This is the approach that Gideon Mailer has taken in his new biography John Witherspoon’s American Revolution.
