Book Review: Mr. Adams Last Crusade:John Quincy Adam's Extraordinary Post-Presidential Life in Congress
Summary: 5 Stars

This book has given me a new (to me) hero. Adams was a great man. The book is well written. I had trouble putting it down, couldn't wait to get to the next page. On a scale of 1-10, I give it a 15. If you like history, don't miss this one!
