About this item
John Adams was the second U.S. president, and the first to live in the White House. He hand-selected George Washington to serve as commander of the Continental Army. He also chose Thomas Jefferson to write the Declaration of Independence. Adams clearly had a brilliant legal mind, but his brash tactics attracted both friends and enemies.
