Product Review
"A useful tool, for students enrolled in an intro course, to go one step deepr into U.S. history or one aspect of it."--Ralph Hymes, National Technical Institute for the Deaf
"The course of that more than fifty-year relationship [between Adams and Jefferson] and its healing close are compactly, eloquently traced.This fine little book greatly illuminates the meaning of our political heritage."--Edward Fuller, The Wall Street Journal
"Peterson's gorgeously written analysis and interpretation of the familiar and remarkable founders is fresh and useful, with some new insights even for the historian who has read these men and their correspondence many times."--Richard Beale Davis, Key Reporter

Reader Reviews
Merrill D. PetersonŐs Adams and Jefferson: A Revolutionary Dialogue is a well-documented study of how two men of differing characters and political views met and became life-long friends. Drawing heavily on the Adams-Jefferson letters and other primary sources, Peterson does a satisfactory job of explaining why these two men became friends and traced the very course of their friendship. In reading this book, I have learned that even though political events like the Election of 1800 and the French Revolution can overwhelm and destroy a friendship, a faithful friend can act as a go-between and help repair a friendship.
