John & Abigail Adams
I love to read young adult nonfiction to get some good information quickly. This volume is over-sized, and a bit over 100 pages. John Adams was our second president. Before that, he was George Washington's vice president. Before that, he was one of the most influential Founding Fathers, contributing to authoring our Constitution. Before that, he was a farmer. Abigail is remembered for counseling her husband in a letter to remember "the ladies" in the Constitution. (They did not.) She was very intelligent and knowledgeable about politics, but she was self-educated, a fact that she always resented. The couple kept a constant stram of letters going, since they were often separate due to John's political work. This book gives us some good insight into life in general during the 1700's, and during the beginning days of the United States of America. Did you know there wasn't a popular election AT ALL at first?
