獨立領袖 The Independent Leader

約翰亞當斯個子不高,但個人見解豐富且思考縝密,有「獨立藍圖」(Atlas of Independence)的暱稱,他的父親(一位農夫、製鞋師、地方政府領導者、也是個教會的執事)從他年輕時就鼓勵他充實學識,於哈佛學院就讀後,約翰亞當斯成為一位老師、接著從事律師工作許多年,建立起個人中立、坦率、誠信的信譽。

亞當斯進入公職領域,也正式美國開始出現獨立運動的時期。亞當斯在此時在美國建國歷程中,扮演怎麼樣的領導者角色?

John Adams was a short man, but long on opinions and always thinking for himself. This earned him the nickname "Atlas of Independence." His father (a farmer, shoemaker, local government leader, and church deacon) encouraged him intellectually from a young age. After attending Harvard College, John Adams worked as a teacher and then for many years as a lawyer, developing a reputation for being independent, outspoken, and honest.

Adams moved into public service just as the movement for an independent America was developing. What kind of leadership role did Adams play in the creation of the United States?
