He fought for Washington, dished up with Lincoln, witnessed Bunker Hill, and sounded the clarion against slavery on the eve of the Civil Conflict. He negotiated a finish to the Conflict of 1812, designed the annexation of Florida, and earned the Supreme Courtroom decision that freed the African captives of La Amistad. He dished up his region as minister to six countries, secretary of condition, senator, congressman, and president. John Quincy Adams was many of these things and much more. On this masterful biography, award-winning author Harlow Giles Unger unveils Adams as a towering amount in the country's formative years and one of the very most courageous characters in American record - which is why he positioned first in John F. Kennedy's Pulitzer Prize-winning Information in Courage. A magisterial biography and a sweeping panorama of American record from the Washington to Lincoln eras, Unger's John Quincy Adams practices one of America's most important yet least known characters.
