Kfamily Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 Dh and I just finished watching the HBO series John Adams through Netflix which we enjoyed very much. The letters between the two presidents were interesting to us and I wondered if a book existed with the letters in them. I found this book at Amazon and it looks really good. Has anyone read it and what do you think? Would this be too much for dd to read when she is in highschool? What do you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melis108 Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 I would love to read them! I think it would be great for you and your daughter to read them and then discuss! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Hen Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 I read your post, checked my library and they have the book! I ordered it and just have to wait for the present holder to return it. Thanks for mentioning this book. When a PBS show has read one of their letters I have so enjoyed hearing what these people wrote.

I think if you did you would get a much better picture of John Adams. The HBO series was very flawed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
