With former President Adams term over he has only time on his hands. Time to farm and to be a nag to his family. But life is never easy for Mr. Adams and his family. His daughter has breast cancer, which the family doctor removes. But later on comes back and takes her life, just as her husbands luck was changing. Lost and unsure of what to do Mr. Adams takes his wife advice and starts to write his memoirs. But on the verge of Mr. and Mrs. Adams 54th anniversary Mrs. Adams passes away. Mr. Adams with no where else to turn to, decides to begin writing to Mr. Jefferson with his concerns about how they will be remembered. The two continue there letters to one another until Mr. Adams and Mr. Jefferson’s death on July 4th 1826. It is an interesting end for the first 50 years of American history one wrought with internal fighting and power struggles. I personally felt that the show slipped a little bit, it was paced well enough but it didn’t feel like it kept my interest. I’d give it a 7 out of 10.
