Has anyone seen the HBO miniseries of John Adams? ( http://www.hbo.com/films/johnadams/ )
I watched the first two episodes. They were very well done. Anyone who has read the book 1776 will recognize several events as the two books overlap in time period. The author, David McCullough, is known for historical accuracy. He gathers most of his information from diaries, historical documents, and archaeological information. Since David McCullough was a large part of this miniseries, I believe it will be very accurate historically.
