Popis: | Before they married in July 1797, Louisa Catherine Johnson and John Quincy Adams conducted a stormy correspondence that previewed their fifty-year marriage. The exceptional strengths they shared—wit, ambition, courage in adversity—would sustain them through devastating family tragedies but could not ease their path through a painful courtship. |
