Thomas Jefferson vs. John Adams: Founding Fathers and Political Rivals (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781482442397)

It may be surprising to even history buffs that Founding Fathers Thomas Jefferson and John Adams were at odds for years after the American Revolution. Each held tightly to their opposing views of how the new nation should be governed. This absorbing text not only reviews many important benchmarks of American history--such as the writing of the US Constitution and the establishment of political parties--it also provides well-rounded analyses of these two powerful men, their relationship, and their eventual reconciliation. Their prolific writings provide many significant quotations throughout this valuable and insightful volume.
