John Adams

by David McCullough

  • BIOGRAPHY/MEMOIR
  • 2002
  • PAPER
  • 751 PAGES

The Pulitzer Prize-winning author of "Truman" has turned to the Founding Fathers in putting together this best-selling biography. With his term as president sandwiched between George Washington and Thomas Jefferson, Adams has often gotten short shrift as a Founding Father. But in this expansive narrative, McCullough reveals him as a magnificent figure who helped shaped the nation.  (USE201, $20.00)
