"JQA is so little known. This book provides a good look into the life of this brilliant man who didn't gain public appreciation until his final years."
"A good look into the life of JQA. Well written, good use of Adams' personal writings to give a full picture of this brilliant, earnest, flawed, and very human president."
"My interest in John Quincy Adams was tweaked when I read David McCullough's wonderful book, John Adams. As the title indicates, this book describes his life both privately and publicly. His romance with his wife, his letters to her, and the tensions between his wife and Mother all added interest to the book. For a history buff, the descriptions of happenings in the country lent further interest."
