A biography of an extraordinary woman who was the wife of one president and the mother of another.

Young Adult.

Industry Reviews
"Abigail Adams fairly jumps off the page at you in Bober's wonderful prose; a real sense of this strong, no-nonsense lady pervades the book and gives a wonderful impression of how difficult life, travel, love, and marriage was in the 18th century....There have been many excellent biographies of both John and Abigail published, but this one is by far the best for young adult readers."
Boston Book Review - Tim Moses (03/19/1996)

"This excellent biography offers readers a key piece of American history through the illuminating lens of a woman's perspective."
