  • John Adams, Diplomat

    John FerlingCHAPTERColonial America and the Early…2017

In addition, Adam…

    John Ferling, Lewis E BravermanARTICLEThe William and Mary Quarterly1998

    H T ISTORIANS have long believed that John Adams was given at times to irrational behavior that could only be attributed to emotional instability. Several of his contemporaries reached the same conclusion. His secretary of war, James McHenry, once called him actually insane. Theodore Sedgwick, a Federalist senator from Massachusetts, said the president has his passions that were derived from a half frantic mind. Rumors circulated in the capital i…
