Audition Announcements
* Historian Joseph Ellis has found that the 1,200 letters between John and Abigail “constituted a treasure trove of unexpected intimacy andcandor, more revealing than any other correspondence between a prominent American husband and wife in American history.” Ellis (2011) says that Abigail, although self-educated, was a better and more colorful letter-writer than John, even though John was one of the best letter-writers of the age. Ellis argues that Abigail was the more resilient and more emotionally balanced of the two, and calls her one of the most extraordinary women in American history.
