An Early 250th Birthday Present
The Adams-Jefferson Letters: The Complete Correspondence between Thomas Jefferson and Abigail and John Adams
$250.00University of North Carolina Press: Chapel Hill, 1959. Two volumes. Complete correspondence between founding fathers John Adams and Thomas Jefferson. Includes the correspondence between Abigail Adams and Jefferson. Inscribed by editor Lester J. Capon. Spines lightly sunned otherwise fine. Slipcase rubbed at extremities with a few tape repairs. No dust wrappers as issued. The correspondence between John Adams and Thomas Jefferson spanned half a century and embraced government, philosophy, religion, quotidiana, and family griefs and joys. First meeting as delegates to the Continental Congress in 1775, they initiated correspondence in 1777, negotiated jointly as ministers in Europe in the 1780s, and served the early Republic–each, ultimately, in its highest office. At Jefferson’s defeat of Adams for the presidency in 1800, they became estranged, and the correspondence lapses from 1801 to 1812, then is renewed until the death of both in 1826, fifty years to the day after the Declaration of Independence. One of the monuments of American scholarship and, to quote C. Vann Woodward, ‘a major treasure of national literature.’
