He was the great grandson of one U.S. president. The grandson of another. The son of a diplomat and U.S. congressman. A Harvard graduate and a member of the New England intellectual elite. And as he began his career as a political writer, Henry Adams set his sights on Ulysses S. Grant , a man he considered unfit for the presidency. Born in Boston on February 16, 1838, Henry Adams grew up in an atmosphere of wealth and culture. His great-grandfather, John Adams, had been the United States' second president. His grandfather, John Quincy Adams, had been the sixth. Adams' father, Charles Francis Adams, was a historian. Charles would also serve his country as a congressman and a diplomat. Adams' mother, Abigail Brown Brooks, was a Boston Brahmin, a daughter of one of the city's wealthy, exclusive families. As a boy, Henry Adams studied at an exclusive private school, but he also learned a great deal from his father. The family home included a library of some 18,000 books the largest in Boston at the time. Later, at Harvard University, Henry studied broadly. His subjects included Greek and Roman literature, mathematics, government, botany, astronomy, physics, and French. In 1858 Henry graduated from Harvard, just as his father, grandfather, and great-grandfather had done before him. After graduation, Adams traveled to Germany, where he began to study law at the University of Berlin. But when

Henry Adams Catharine Beecher John Dewey Elaine Goodale Eastman ... Laura Towne Henry Adams (1838-1918) Born into the prominent Adams family of presidents and historians, Henry Adams was himself a historian and philosopher. In his autobiography, The Education of Henry Adams , he writes about himself with a kind of distant irony in the third person, suggesting that he is only a small part of larger forces at work in the world. It is in the chapter entitled "Failure," about his own early attempts to teach, that he wrote, "A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where his influences stops."

Henry Adams Activities This link leads to artifacts, teaching tips and discussion questions for this author. From his early childhood on, Henry Adams was acutely aware of his heritage as part of the remarkable political dynasty of the Adams family. Both his great-grandfather and his grandfather had served as President of the United States, and his father, Charles Francis Adams, was a congressman and a diplomat. But while Henry Adams maintained a lively interest in politics and moved in powerful social circles in Washington, D.C., all his life, he found his true calling and lasting fameas a writer and a historian. Noted in his own time for his essays, biographies, novels, and histories, today Adams owes his reputation primarily to The Education of Henry Adams , his unique autobiographical study of the forces that shaped his own life and nineteenth-century America more generally.

Democracy: An American Novel Author Info: Henry Brooks Adams To act with entire honesty and self-respect, one should always live in a pure atmosphere, and the atmosphere of politics is impure. -Senator Silas Ratcliffe Democracy In his own lifetime, Henry Adams was famous first for being the grandson of John Quincy Adams, thus the great grandson of John Adams; second for his epic History of the United States During the Jefferson and Madison Administrations . It was only upon his death, in 1918, that his third person autobiography, The Education of Henry Adams , was published and that his publisher revealed that Adams had written the previously anonymous novel Democracy . It is The Education which has sustained his reputation, having been named the number one book on the Modern Library list of the Top 100 Nonfiction Books of the 20th Century , but Democracy is still considered one of the better novels of American politics, though surprisingly it is currently out of print.
