"Great story about an not so loved president.The series is well done and shows the many difficulties Adams faced as Ambassador, then congressman, Vice President under Washington then President himself. This is one president who was caught between two strong men and who had to face the harsh task of siding in the war between England and France. Bravo to the actress who played Abigail, a strong presence in Adams life.
To be seen at least once. "
