John & Abigail Adams : an American love story

Judith ST. George - Personal Name;

From School Library Journal Gr 6-9-John and Abigail Adams's marriage lasted 54 years, surviving wars, tragedies, politics, and frequent separations. During these absences, the Adamses wrote the letters upon which this biography is based. St. George utilizes their actual dialogue (updated to adhere to current grammar and spelling standards) to capture the personalities, hopes, and fears of the Adamses and their contemporaries (Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, Mercy Warren, etc.) Through these excerpts, readers gain an insight into the feelings the couple had about the events occurring around them, as well as a recorded history of their daily life. Numerous archival portraits and prints are included. This title succeeds as a joint biography. However, the author focuses on the couple's romance, with little consideration given to the political dealings of the time. While well written, the book may not generate much interest in the intended audience. Note: at least one error (an incorrect date attributed to a portrait) remains in the final edition. An additional purchase. Shauna Yusko, King County Library System, Bellevue, WA Copyright 2001 Cahners Business Information, Inc.
