Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Fair. 448 ages. Engpaper genealogical table. Introduction by Daniel J. Boorstin. Selected Bibliography. Index. DJ is price clipped and has some wear and soiling. Jack Shepherd (1937) was born in Chatham, New Jersey, and enjoyed a global career as a journalist, writer and university professor. He worked principally as a Senior Editor at LOOK Magazine and as a writer in Newsweek's foreign department. He has also written for other US publications including Atlantic, Harper's, New York, Saturday Review, Outside, New York, and The Sunday New York Times Magazine. As a journalist Shepherd covered stories primarily in sub-Saharan Africa (Ghana, Nigeria, Kenya, Tanzania, Ethiopia) and the Middle East (Israel, Palestine). Shepherd is also the author of ten books, three of which made The New York Times best-seller list: Quotations from LBJ (with Christopher S. Wren); The Runner's Handbook (with Bob Glover); and The Adams Chronicles. Shepherd earned his Ph.D. at age 50 (Boston University) and then taught at Boston University, the University of Cambridge (UK) for six years, and, since 1988, at Dartmouth College. He retired in 2007 and has returned to writing full time. His tenth book, Hunger: The Biology and Politics of Starvation (with John Butterly), was published in October 2010. The Adams Chronicles is the endlessly fascinating text and picture history of four generations of one of America's most prominent families, told largely in their own words from diaries and letters. The four generations in this volume are represented by (1) John Adams, (2) John Quincy Adams, (3) Charles Francis Adams, and (4) the brothers John Quincy II, Charles Francis Hr., Henry, and Brooks Adams. Linked to the award-winning TV series, this book chronicles the story of the Adams political family over a 150-year span, including John Adams (signer of the Declaration, accomplished diplomat & 2nd President), his wife Abigail Adams, his son John Quincy Adams (Secretary of State, 6th President & abolitionist Congressman), grandson Charles Francis Adams, congressman & ambassador to Great Britain during the Civil War, & much-heralded members of the 4th generation Henry Brooks Adams, the historian & author of the novel Democracy, & Charles Francis Adams II, the industrialist. This is a companion volume to a television series that chronicles the story of the Adams political family over a 150-year span, including John Adams (drafter and signer of the Declaration, accomplished diplomat, and the 2nd President of the U.S.), his wife Abigail Adams, his son John Quincy Adams (acclaimed Secretary of State, the 6th President, and prominent abolitionist Congressman), grandson Charles Francis Adams, Congressman and Ambassador to Great Britain during the Civil War, and much-heralded members of the fourth generation Henry Brooks Adams, the historian and author of the novel Democracy, and Charles Francis Adams II, the industrialist. The most prominent role in the series is John Adams, played by George Grizzard. His views dominate the series even after his death on July 4, 1826, the 50th anniversary of the passage of the United States Declaration of Independence. As a result of his achievements during the Revolution and afterwards as vice president and president of the U.S., subsequent Adams generations have a hard time dealing with this legacy of public service and accomplishment and frequently wonder if they are measuring up to their distinguished ancestry. In the end, the members of the fourth generation come to believe that the time during which the Adams family could play a prominent role in the affairs of the nation has passed.
