Abigail Adams

Noted historian Francis Russell tells the compelling story of the Adams dynasty in this comprehesive and very readable book.

John and Abigail Adams and their descendants profoundly influenced life in the United States for more than two centuries. From the great political and philosophical contributions of Founding Father and President John Adams, the roster of Adams luminaries is unprecedented: diplomat and sixth president, John Quincy Adams; pre-Civil War "Voice of Honor," Charles Francis Adams; and authors Henry and Brook Adams.
