Patrick Henry: Voice of the Revolution

A politician, orator, and patriot, Patrick Henry summed up the greatest goal of his times with the words "Give me liberty or give me death." In profession and oration, he committed himself to the cause of just and fair government first for the colonies, then the new nation. A multiterm governor of Virginia, champion of the Bill of Rights, and powerful orator, Patrick Henry more than earned his nickname and legacy as the Voice of the Revolution.
