He became Congress's most acerbic and influential critic of slavery as well as a tireless proponent for human freedoms and First Amendment rights. This remarkable congressional career utterly transformed him, the public's perception of him, and his legacy,in many ways redeeming his failed presidency. Mr. Adams's Last Crusade renders an insightful portrait of a man who placed his country above politics.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 235mmItem Length: 159mmAuthor: Joseph WheelanGenre: HistoryRelease Year: 2009 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
