    Entering the presidency in full service to the American people, John Adams vowed: "Their Confidence, which has been the Chief Consolation of my Life, is too prescious and Sacred a deposit ever to be considered lightly." This volume of the Papers of John Adams charts the period from February 1797 to February 1798, exploring the United States' diplomatic rupture with France and the Adams administration's pivot toward the Quasi-War. Adams spent his first year in office struggling to uphold a form of neutrality that would shield American shipping and commerce from France's mounting attacks. The US government labored to shift money and resources for military preparedness. "I should hold myself guilty of a neglect of Duty, if I forebore to recommend that We Should make every exertion to protect our Commerce, and to place our Country in a Suitable posture of defence," he wrote. Adams kept careful watch over imperial tensions on the western frontiers, where Spain, France, Great Britain, Native nations, and the United States wrestled for local control. The second president faced a resurgence of yellow fever in Philadelphia, public debates in the press about his abilities, and an ambitious cabinet. From the opening moments of his inauguration to his headlong rush to heal the United States' relations with France, this volume reveals how John Adams evolved the American presidency.
