Ronald Himler.
In measured prose, the Adlers recount Adams's life, particularly his contributions to the American Revolution, from an early involvement in politics through organizing groups such as the Sons of Liberty, the Stamp Act Congress, the Boston Tea Party, and the Second Continental Congress, where he signed the Declaration of Independence. Art in subdued tones illustrates the text. Source notes, timeline, websites. Bib.
