Ok, we are back to the new world, after lingering in France for more than 50 years, so we’ve gone from France to America, and we’ve gone back in time just a bit, so we can catch up on what’s been happening in America while France was enjoying a quick Reign of Terror.  When we last left America, the United States had adopted its Constitution, and Washington was the President.  
 

John Adams is one of my favorite historical characters, in part because he just happened to have an absolutely awesome life at an absolutely awesome time to be alive, but also in part because he’s kind of an anti-hero.  He was brash, abrasive, deeply principled, a fantastic writer,  very loyal to his friends, and extremely committed to duty.
