The Adamses, by Richard Brookhiser
 
|
America's First Dynasty: The Adamses, 1735-1918, by Richard Brookhiser. It is ironic that two of the greatest dynasties in American political history came out of Massachusetts. The Adamses played a prominent role in American life from Colonial days until the First World War. Here Brookhiser has produced a short and compelling history of the Adams family. It is witty, charming and most of all informative. Brookhiser is a senior editor for the National Review. He brings an intelligent and conservative view to American history.
