The second daughter of a Massachusetts pastor, Abigail longed to go to school like the boys of the Colonial days. Recognizing his daughter's inquisitive mind, Abigail's father instructed her at home using books from his large personal library. Smart and with strong opinions, Abigail was the constant confidante of her husband, President John Adams. The mother of five, she lived in France and England, New York, Philadelphia, and Washington, D.C. She was the first president's wife to live in the White House, and the first woman to be the wife of a U.S. president and the mother of another U.S. president. For the cause of liberty, Abigail and John were frequently apart. Through the more than 1,100 letters they exchanged, history has an insightful look at the extraordinary people who crafted the Great American Experiment - the United States of America. 600 10 $a Adams, Abigail, $d 1744-1818 $v Juvenile literature. 600 10 $a Adams, John, $d 1735-1826 $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Presidents' spouses $z United States $v Juvenile literature. $v Juvenile literature. 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 lcgft 830 0 $a First ladies, second to none. 941 $a 1 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20180106011620.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9DDD144EF2AF11E79A81643B97128E48 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
