First aired during the nation's bicentennial year, in 1976, this timeless, historical series won four Emmys and was hailed by critics at the time as "the best and highest-rated series in the history of American public television." The 13-episode series dramatizes four generations of Adamses and 150 years of American history: John Adams, passionate revolutionary and second president; John Quincy Adams, proud son of a famous father and sixth president; Charles Francis Adams, skillful minister to Great Britain during the Civil War; historian Henry Adams; and railroad magnate Charles Francis Adams Jr. Also included is a 12-page program guide with articles from a number of distinguished historians.
