After forty years of marriage, Abigail looks back to the days of her early marriage as the young wife and mother. Referring to the many letters written between the Adams, she recalls the days of revolution and uncertainty. She reminisces about the friendships forged in France and England as a diplomat’s wife, the divisive election of 1800 and her management of the Adam's farm. Mrs. Adams brings to life the early days of Washington, D.C. as seen from the windows of an unfinished White House.
