Specificatii
John Ferling has nearly forty years of experience as a historian of
early America. The author of acclaimed histories such as A Leap
into the Dark and Almost a Miracle, he has appeared on many TV and
film documentaries on this pivotal period of our history. In John
Adams: A Life, Ferling offers a compelling portrait of one of the
giants of the Revolutionary era. Drawing on extensive research,
Ferling depicts a reluctant revolutionary, a leader who was deeply
troubled by the warfare that he helped to make, and a fiercely
independent statesman. The book brings to life an exciting time, an
age in which Adams played an important political and intellectual
role. Indeed, few were more instrumental in making American
independence a reality. He performed yeoman's service in the
Continental Congress during the revolution and was a key figure in
negotiating the treaty that brought peace following the long War of
Independence. He held the highest office in the land and as
president he courageously chose to pursue a course that he thought
best for the nation, though it was fraught with personal political
dangers. Adams emerges here a man full of contradictions. He could
be petty and jealous, but also meditative, insightful, and
provocative. In private and with friends he could be engagingly
witty. He was terribly self-centered, but in his relationship with
his wife and children his shortcomings were tempered by a deep,
abiding love. John Ferling's masterful John Adams: A Life is a
singular biography of the man who succeeded George Washington in
the presidency and shepherded the fragile new nation through the
most dangerous of times.
