Description
John Adams: A Life of Visionary Politics and Personal Courage
This epic biography tells the story of John Adams, the second president of the United States and one of America's founding fathers. With his brilliant mind, fierce independence, and unwavering commitment to the American Revolution, Adams played a pivotal role in shaping the country's early years.
Through a richly detailed narrative, David McCullough brings to life the complex and often contradictory figure of John Adams, whose marriage to Abigail was one of the most enduring love stories in American history. This is a book about politics, war, social issues, and human nature - a grand-scale exploration of the far-reaching consequences of noble ideas.
