A must read for anyone interested in John Adams, founding fathers or early U.S. history. ( )

3356. John Adams II 1784-1826, by Page Smith (read Oct 8, 2000) The account, especially of the years from 1801 to 1826, is very well-done, filled with good language. I am glad I finally read this most excellent work, and I have now read a bio of each president except James K. Polk (tho I read two volumes of one on him, but they did not cover the last two years of his life), Millard Fillmore, Teddy Roosevelt (tho I read Edmund Morris' volume--maybe I am waiting for him to do the 2nd and 3rd), Hoover, FDR, Ford, Reagan, and Bush.
