About Author

Henry Adams

Henry Adams (January 21, 1583 – October 6, 1646) was an English colonial farmer. Also known as Henry Adams of Braintree, he was a patrilineal emigrant ancestor of U.S. Presidents John Adams and John Quincy Adams, great-great-grandfather of U.S. Founding Father Samuel Adams, and 9th great-grandfather of U.S. President Calvin Coolidge.

First sentence

I wrote this little volume more than thirty years ago, since when I have hardly opened it...

Description

Henry Adams's first work, The Emancipation of Massachusetts, by its vigorous assault upon the accepted manner of dealing with early New England history, attracted attention, caused retort, and served as a wholesome protest against a somewhat blind acceptance of ancestor-worship.
