John Adams by David McCullough (2001, Hardcover)

A great book,a great man

Excellent book for anyone who likes US history-well written,informative.It is one of those books(many in last 20-40 years)that give Adams the recognition he DESERVES.For too
long Washington,Jefferson,Franklin have been given TOO MUCH credit and Adams place
underrated.Read full review

Too Many Words

Davis McCullough is one of my favorite authors, (The Wright Brothers, for example.) Too often, however, he gets mired in minutiae which makes his work, while fine for researchers, quite tedious for the casual reader.Read full review

Required reading for anyone who wonders why early America was truly exceptional

Having watched the HBO TV series multiple times, I wanted to probe the details of McCullough's book. I was not disappointed. This is not revisionist history. It is truth told in a gripping human way that we all wish we had learned history. We need a heavy dose of it.Read full review

John Adams, The Number One Founding Father

David McCollough's book about John Adams, should be taught in every public school in the nation from the eighth grade to twelve. It is great history, accurate and enlightening. Too bad many public students don' t know the role of each of the founding fathers and what they stood for as values. Thanks to EBay for making it available.Read full review
