American statesman John Adams (1735 1826) was a key player in the
early days of the American Revolution, and the second President of
the United States (1797 1801). He was involved in drafting the 1776
Declaration of Independence, and as a Congress representative in
Europe negotiated peace with Great Britain. First published in
1841, this two-volume book brings together the letters Adams wrote
to his wife Abigail between 1774 and 1801. Spanning twenty-five
years crucial to the creation and development of the United States
as a nation, these letters reveal Adams' reactions to world events
and his political views, as well as his daily life and concern for
his family. Edited by Adams' grandson, the letters were largely
left in their original form, in order to preserve the vitality and
character of Adams' style. Volume 1 covers the early years of
Adams' political career, from 1774 to 1777.
