About this product

Product Information

Excerpt from Berlin and the Prussian Court in 1798 The habit of keeping a daily journal or diary was enjoined upon his children by John Adams. In 1778, when his son John Quincy was eleven years old and with him at Passy, in the environs of Paris, he provided him with a blank book in which to keep a diary of the Events that happened to him, of the objects that he saw, and of the persons with whom he conversed from day to day. These three features characterize the present journal of Thomas Boylston Adams. It is w printed for the first time from the original manuscript in The New York Public Library. The Library bought it in July of this year from Dr. Charles R. Eastman, the palaeontologist, who had purchased it from an acquaintance whilst a student at Harvard College. The journal is written in a small, limp, leather-bound book, measuring about 7 by 4 1/2 inches, and fills 74 pages. President John Adams and Abigail (Smith) Adams had five children, three sons and two daughters, of whom Thomas Boylston, born at Quincy, Mass., on September 15, 1772, was the youngest. He was unmarried when he accompanied his brother John Quincy Adams, only five years his elder, to the Prussian court at Berlin. On May 16, 1805, he married Ann Harod, daughter of Joseph and Ann Harod, of Haverhill, Mass., who survived him many years. They had seven children, four sons and three daughters. One of his sons died while lieutenant of artillery, in the United States Army, and ather son died in the navy on Perry's Expedition, in 1853. Thomas Boylston Adams was a graduate of Harvard in the class of 1790. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
