John Adams was, as his friend and occasional competitor Thomas Jefferson called him, "The Colossus of Independence". The second president of the United States, he was also the ultimate revolutionary. This volume demonstrates his passion and conviction in his own words, including the oration and speeches on independence, his seminal Thoughts on Government, that became the guide for several state constitutions, and his Discourses on Davila, which mistakenly branded him as a monarchist. His forthright correspondence as well as his tender love letters to his wife and strongest ally, Abigail, make his work essential reading for any student of the "American Experiment".
