It was interesting to read just how different Adams and Jefferson were, yet it is unlikely this nation could have succeeded without such differences in the founders. The hope and optimism of Jefferson to help it take off, the wisdom and cynicism of Adams to keep it from flying away. Well written. A worthwhile read.

#chunksterchallenge2023 check in: I‘m a little more than halfway through. I‘m not enjoying this one as much as I loved Grant and Washington, but it‘s very informative…and it‘s a good reminder that politics have always been nasty.

Finally had the opportunity to see Hamilton!
It is just as amazing as people say!
I grabbed Chernow's book during intermission and I'm making it a new 2023 reading goal to finish all 731 pgs by year's end!
I may start with the shorter book about Lafayette 🙃 I'm fascinated about his role in the war.
