JOHN ADAMS-Declaration of Independence-Drafting in 1776




John Adams,Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson collaborate to edit the Declaration of Independence in Philadelphia.

Better order some more grog, guys, this could take awhile.

Jefferson also demonstrates the swivel chair he invented. What a clever chap.

  1. This was a great series. I also liked the 1776 musical that came out in 1976. Both in my opinion brought out the influential role JohnAdams played in our history.

  2. That's a film I haven't seen in a long while. Thanks for reminding me of it--hopefully its out there on DVD.
