Richard Brookhiser has come out with another book on a Founding Father. This time it’s John Adams. John, along with his descendents John Quincy, Charles Francis, and Henry make up what Brookhiser calls “America’s First Dynasty.” Jeff Shesol’s review notes that unlike his previous subjects (George Washington and Alexander Hamilton), Brookhiser is “ambivalent” toward his subjects.
