Dec History Bk Club Meeting-"John Adams" Part III by David McCullough

In November, we discussed the first two parts of John Adams by David McCullough. We will finish up with Part III, and a discussion of the overall book in December.

Here is what the publisher has to say about the book:

"In this powerful, epic biography, David McCullough unfolds the adventurous life-journey of John Adams, the brilliant, fiercely independent, often irascible, always honest Yankee patriot -- "the colossus of independence," as Thomas Jefferson called him -- who spared nothing in his zeal for the American Revolution; who rose to become the second President of the United States and saved the country from blundering into an unnecessary war; who was learned beyond all but a few and regarded by some as "out of his senses"; and whose marriage to the wise and valiant Abigail Adams is one of the moving love stories in American history."

Please remember that this is, first and foremost, a book club. Like any local book club, the point is discussion about a shared experience - reading the book! It is not a lecture series. So as usual, get yourself a copy and read it, then join us for another interesting discussion. We will still be operating virtually.

A zoom link to the discussion will be sent a day before the meeting.
