Nation Builder
John Quincy Adams and the Grand Strategy of the Republic
Charles N. Edel
Nation Builder is a fascinating biography of John Quincy Adams, exploring his role as a central architect in shaping America's rise from a confederation of revolutionary colonies to a world power. Author Charles N. Edel examines Adams's service as senator, diplomat, secretary of state, president, and congressman, revealing a brilliant and visionary man who crafted a multitiered policy to expand U.S. territory, develop domestic infrastructure, and harness natural resources. Adams's strategies for insulating the nation from European quarrels and transforming the United States into a model of progress and liberty continue to resonate as America pursues its place in the twenty-first-century world.

This semester has been exhausting, but as I finish up my last exam I want to recommend these book to anyone looking for a good history of early American diplomacy, especially the Jacobson text.
