Curious Minds Club: John and Abigail Adams, A Love Story

Boy meets girl. Boy becomes a revolutionary and then president. Girl reminds him to not neglect the rights of women. John and Abigail Adams were at the center of the American experiment for decades and devoted themselves to its success, though at great cost to their marriage and family. In this lecture, historian Joyce Haworth draws on the hundreds of letters that passed between them to tell a very personal story of love, commitment, and devotion to each other and to the United States.
