    질문 입력

    I’ve been reading 1776 by David McCullough and the Revolutionary by Stacey Chef and I’m wondering if I would be interested in reading the John Adams biography also by McCullough I’m not sure I know much about him. Can you develop a lesson about who he was and why he was so important and so interesting?
