Excerpt from John Adams, the Statesman of the American Revolution: Address Before the Webster Historical Society, at Its Annual Meeting in Boston, Jan, 18, 1884

John Adams entered public life with the first session of the Continental Congress, which met at Philadelphia, 5 Sep tember, 1774, and remained in the service of the country almost uninterruptedly until the close of his administration, 4 March, 1801. Of this period, nine years were covered by the American Revolution, in which he took a leading part and held it. With undiminished zeal and constancy until the Treaty of Peace in 1783. It is this part of his life of which I am to give some account.
