Politicians, the good, the bad, and the ugly

[General Lee]

Very good. There are lots of good books on the 1824 election. Makes 2020 look tame.

Thanks, are there any books in particular you'd recommend ?

A little off topic, but a thought that's been running through my head is when you can put aside your differences for a time you can learn a lot.

This is the only book I can find in my library. It is a good, detailed history of the 1824 election.

Thanks, I'll look more into it.

I did ask before but it may have went unnoticed. So I was curious to see if any of y'all are related to any of these figures or any politician of this era.

None that I know of, but I am certain there is a horse thief or two hanging from the family tree.

According to my grandmother and another relative I'm related to John Q. Adams. I plan to look and see how.

That would be a good ancestor to have because you would also be related to John, Abigail, Charles Francis, and Henry Adams. Long before the Kennedys they were the first family of America.
