John Quincy Adams was the last of his kind - a Puritan from the age of the Founders who despised party and compromise yet dedicated himself to politics and government. The son of John Adams, he was a brilliant ambassador and secretary of state, a frustrated president at a historic turning point in American politics, and a dedicated congressman who literally died in office - at the age of 80, in the House of Representatives, in the midst of an impassioned political debate. In John Quincy Adams, scholar and journalist James Traub draws on Adams' diary, letters, and writings to evoke a diplomat and president whose ideas remain with us today. Adams was a fierce nationalist who, as secretary of state, championed the idea of American expansion. Yet at the same time, he warned against moralistic and militaristic policies abroad - a chastening wisdom that makes him the father of what we now call "realism" in foreign policy. As president he was a bold proponent of the idea of activist government later brought to fruition by Abraham Lincoln and others. Adams' numerous achievements - and equally numerous failures - stand as testaments to his unwavering moral convictions. A man who refused to take refuge in the politically prudent course of action, Adams was repudiated by his own Federalist party and, as president, by the nation that voted him out of office. And yet, in the final decade of his life, Adams regained the country's regard, and even reverence, for as a congressman he often stood alone against the forces of slavery, twice beating back motions of censure. John Quincy Adams tells the story of this brilliant, flinty, and unyielding man whose life exemplified political courage - a life against which each of us might measure our own. : John Quincy Adams: Militant Spirit eBook John Quincy Adams: Militant Spirit John Quincy Adams is a sharp portrait of the fascinating statesman who helped bring about the consolidation of the United John Quincy Adams: Militant Spirit by James Traub John Quincy Adams is a sharp portrait of the fascinating statesman who helped bring about the John Quincy Adams: Militant Spirit 5 out of 5 based on John Quincy Adams: Militant Spirit by James Traub John Quincy Adams has 166 While I already knew a good bit about John Quincy Adams from reading McCullough's "John "John Quincy Adams: Militant Spirit" John Quincy Adams: Militant Spirit Hardcover - Amazonca John Quincy Adams is a sharp portrait of the fascinating statesman who helped bring John Quincy Adams: Militant Spirit ranks among the best presidential John Quincy Adams: Militant Spirit by James Traub - The John Quincy Adams: Militant Spirit asks us to John Quincy Adams is a review of John Quincy Adams: Militant Spirit by John Quincy Adams : militant spirit (Book 2016) [WorldCat John Quincy Adams : militant spirit [James Traub; John Quincy Adams] worldcatorg/oclc/917131300 John Quincy Adams : militant spirit a schema: : John Quincy Adams: Militant Spirit Buy John Quincy Adams: Militant Spirit on FREE John Quincy Adams is a sharp portrait of the fascinating statesman who helped bring James Traub: The Militant Spirit of John Quincy Adams Home Calendar James Traub: The Militant Spirit of James Traub: The Militant Spirit of John Quincy A book sale and signing of John Quincy Adams: Militant JOHN QUINCY ADAMS by James Traub Kirkus Reviews Militant Spirit by James 2008 etc) thoroughly explores the life of John Quincy Adams Kirkus Reviews Issue: Jan 1st 2016 More Biography & Memoir Nonfiction Book Review: John Quincy Adams: Militant Spirit John Quincy Adams: Militant Spirit James Traub Basic $35 (640p) ISBN 978 (The Freedom Agenda) synthesizes the extensive writings of John Quincy Adams
