Episode description

Two giants of American history, one a combative Yankee lawyer, the other a philosophical Virginia planter, helped birth a nation, then nearly destroyed their friendship in the process. In this episode, we follow the gripping and deeply human saga of John Adams and Thomas Jefferson: allies in revolution, bitter political foes, and ultimately, reconciled visionaries whose final act was as poetic as their first.

From Philadelphia to Paris, from power to penmanship, theirs is a story of pride, principles, betrayal, and redemption. And they died on the same day: July 4, 1826.
