Henry Steele Commager, New York Times Book Review
In these loving pages Adams comes to life once againIt is a great achievement.
Book Description
In this highly praised biography of the formative years of the America's second president, Mrs. Bowen portrays John Adams within the context of colonial America and looks at the momentous events that forged a new nation and the character of our second president. This is an old-fashioned biography, gorgeously written, passionately interested in its subject. Mrs. Bowen's primary aim is to convey the temper of mind and intellectual curiosity of a man who many consider the most brilliant individual to have ever held the high office of the presidency.
Reader Reviews
John Adams and the American Revolution by Catherine Drinker Bowen is a great biography of John Adams. Ms. Bowen spends a great amount of time on the childhood and young manhood of Adams. She also touches on his great marriage life. This is a book that I enjoyed perhaps even more than David McCullough's biography titled John Adams, though this book was good. I usually stay away from biographies and read more of the reference type books, I'll have to say though that this book kept my interest to the end.
