My Review 5/5

Amazing. The life of John Adams is certainly overlooked as a founding father. Could not be happier.

Narrative of a strong man whose defining characteristic was New England purity and integrity.
Jon Adams was the defense attorney for the British soldiers from the Boston massacre, did more to advance the independence cause in congress than any other member.

Founder of the navy and first father-son presidential pair. So many good lessons from his life.
