Letters of John Q Adams
Nine letters to his son on the Bible, collected & published shortly after his death: Letters of John Quincy Adams to His Son, on the Bible and Its Teachings. And here's a collection of works by and about John Adams (JQ Adams' father) at live.com/archive.org.
Hat tip: TSO.

Noted in passing
James O'Donnell is one of the presenters in the BBC's 4-part series on St Augustine, and here's a website devoted to the life and work of Page Smith, biographer of John Adams and others. His biography of Adams ($8.00 many years ago at the Old Book Barn, where I also picked up the complete works of Edmund Burke, the 1880s Boston edition, for a pittance) is among my current reading, as is Laura Ingalls Wilder's cracking good Little House series - an Epiphany gift from our 9-year-old daughter. It's not just for kids!
