An Acute Examination Of A Paradoxical U.S. President.John Adams Was An Undiplomatic Diplomat And An Impolitic Politiciana Fierce Revolutionary Yet A Detached And Reluctant Leader Of The Nation He Helped To Found. Few American Public Figures Have Ever Been More Devoted To Doing The Right Thing, Or More Contemptuous Of Doing The Merely Popular Thing. Yet His Yankeebred Fixation With Ethical Propriety And Fiscal Conservatism Never Stood In The Way Of His Doing What Was Necessary. Adams Hated Debt, But As Minister To The Netherlands During The Revolution, He Was Americas Premier Junkbond Salesman. And Though Raised A Traditional Massachusetts Congregationalist, Adams Was Instrumental In Bringing About The Consecration Of The First American Episcopal Bishops. He Was A Warm And Magnanimous Friend And, On Occasion, A Man Who Fully Vindicated The Famous Judgment Of A Rival He Detested. Adams, Said Benjamin Franklin, 'Means Well For His Country, Is Always An Honest Man, Often A Wise One, But, Sometimes, And In Some Things, Is Absolutely Out Of His Senses.'James Grant Examines This Complex And Often Contradictory Founding Father In The Most Wellrounded And Multifaceted Portrait Of Adams To Date. Going From His Beginnings On A Hardscrabble Massachusetts Farm To The Continental Congress To The Court Of St. James And The White House, Grant Traces The Words And Deeds Of One Of Our Most Learned But Politically Starcrossed Leaders.
