From defending British soldiers after the Boston Massacre to becoming the nation’s first vice president and eventually president himself, Adams constantly found himself in second place while still shaping the future of the country. We explore his rivalry and unexpected friendship with Thomas Jefferson, and the chaos of the election of 1800.
