First Family: Abigail and John by Joseph J. Ellis, John Adams, Abigail Adams

3.0

The strength here is Ellis' ability to be straight forward and present historical events in a completely accessible way. The book did not match the premise. There seems to be a lack of a connection between John and Abigail. At times it read more of a biography of them separately rather than a portrait of their marriage.
