Description
In the Adams House library, Harvard alumni Amy Brenneman AB '87, MRPL '26, and Courtney B. Vance AB '82 read letters written between John and Abigail Adams.
The Adams lived apart much of their married life, and often corresponded via letters. These two letters were written around the time of the drafting of the Declaration of Independence, while John was in Philadelphia and Abigail was in Massachusetts.
