John Quincy Adams: A Bibliography Parsons, Lynn H.

John Quincy Adams's life is often divided into three careers, with his presidency--his least successful career--sandwiched between those of diplomat and Secretary of State on one hand and congressman on the other. This bibliography provides a guide to the literature on all three careers. The volume opens with chapters devoted to manuscript and archival resources, the writings of John Quincy Adams, and general biographical publications. Chapters 4 and 5 list sources on Adams's early career and mature years, and chapter 6 turns to the elections of 1824 and 1828. The presidency is covered in chapter 7. Administration associates and the post-presidential years are examined in chapters 8 and 9. Chapter 10 reviews his childhood and personal life. Concluding chapters are devoted to historiography and iconography. The volume includes a list of periodicals and author and subject indexes.
