We’ve lost a treasure in David McCullough. Reading his works or hearing his voice, it’s as if America’s grandfather is speaking directly at you. We’re blessed for his time here, and for the legacy that his work is to both history and the future. Thank you, Mr. McCullough.
Very well said. I totally agree.
@@Gunner40Five Thank you. Very kind of you.
His NOVA documentary on the Panama Canal is a favorite. Highly rewatchable.
😮
Mr. McCullough never wrote or said a word about America that couldn't be verified through at least two sources. He told it like it was, and made me love America - warts and all.
The mini series of John Adams which David McCollough was a supervisor is truly amazing. Adams was such a statesman
Based on his book (as I know you already know), which might be my favorite biography of all time.
I read his book about John Adams. It was an excellent book. And I had watched 1776 on Broadway. John Adams truly was one of the Founding Fathers of this country 🇺🇸. R.I.P David McCullough
You are already dear missed. Going to the new library to get your books!
So good
David McCullough's biography of Adams is brilliant. He has long been my favorite President/Founding Father, and he deserves so much more recognition than he has received. Mc Cullough is one of the very best historians. I've read most of his work and I've never been disappointed.
As a descendant of John Adams, I am proud of my heritage
O
My mother once told me that I'm also a descendant...
@@kennyburns8511 that's awesome! At some point I think we all are related and descendants of our ancestors. The honestly main thing that separates us isn't our skin color or culture, but our beliefs, way of thinking and emotion. God intended on Adam and Eve to populate the earth.The USA was after all believed to be the great melting pot before the government and the evil people within has segregated us. We're not the north and south. We are the right against the left.🇺🇸
You and I are related. I'm also related to John Adams
@@lindsaymcdaniel521 awesome! Always great to meet family 👪❤
David McCullough is an amazing Historical author. We do not teach history to our children correctly to peak their interest enough. Using some of Mr. McCullough,s works would give a fuller insight to historical learning of students.
There should be one school year 9 through 11 grades dedicated to the framers of our Country . The USA
I'm about to turn 18 in January and I have never read a more greater author than David McCullough. I practically have every single one of his books. He will be truly missed!!
AUGUST 9, 2022 God BLESS DAVID McCullough for bringing our Founding Fathers into the light. Had American kids been taught by such a brilliant and descriptive teacher of History---- we would't have young people who are so ignorant of America's Rich and fascinating path to the Constitution! Real history is much more exciting than tech gizmos--- Mr. McCullough was a great Treasure--- we have his narration, and his books--Turn off the Tv and give thanks for this dear, Great Writer!
The mini series John Adams was wonderful. He has become one of my heroes...
Adams is often overlooked and one of my favorite Presidents. The country was on the verge of falling apart, and if it was not for Adams being a moderate and realizing that both sides can have good points was the glue that held us together at a crucial point in our history when everything could have fallen apart. Adams believed in doing what was right, which led him to defend those British troops shortly after the Boston Massacre, fight for freedom from Great Britain, and understand the importance of being friendly with the British after separation. This would be a man that many who try to tear down our founders based on the morals of today would find hard to do so. The man owned any slaves, and his wife Abigal, besides being his wife and best friend, was treated as his equal and one he sought guidance from throughout their lives together. She makes true the saying behind every great man is a great woman, and I suggest that people read the letters between the two.
WOW!! that is awesome to know!!
Thank you so much for reposting this and helping us remember and celebrate a very great man David McCullough
Rest in peace David McCullough. I have read his books on Truman, Adams, and Roosevelt. Excellent historian. I might add that when Adams and Jefferson dies on July 4th, John Quincy Adams was president.
Totally agree...the most underrated and underappreciated of the Founding Fathers.
David McCullough inspired my enduring fascination with American History. His capacity to humanize the characters which formed that history justifies his Presidential Medal of Freedom.
Quincy, MA has done a great job to honor John and John Quincy Adams. David McCullough brought history to life. May he rest in peace.
It’s a shame that all people see in Quincy is the t station into town.
@@davidzwicker5662 Some people take the time to visit the church where the presidents are laid to rest and the homestead. I did when I lived farther away from Quincy than I do now. The statues in the park near the T station are nice. That little "mall" may encourage people to visit the homestead. It is sad that history is not taught well in school. For those who like history and have the time to be a tourist, they will visit the sites.
@@Magazinelady went to a wedding there a couple of years ago. I couldn’t agree with you more.
David McColloughs book 1776 is a treasure and his reading of it on audio is spectacular. I highly recommend both.
How odd, to hear the tune, "Rule Britannia" on fife and drums during the ending of the interview, while discussing the deaths of Jefferson and Adams occurring on July the Fourth 1826. R.I.P. David McCullough.
The best historic novel I have ever read. John and Abigail Adams were so ahead of their times.
I seriously wish more people across the world knew more about John Adams!
David McCullough was one of the best communicators of history to the wider public in all of American history. He wrote for the eye and the ear to the effect that one felt keenly the spirit of the times in which his subjects lived.
One of my favorites books-John Adams by David McCullough-a brilliant author of American history. He makes John Adams come alive.
Very sad that David is gone, what a treasure he was. I have watched probably every single interview, video and all books he wrote. What a genius and someone who appreciated the people behind the founding of our nation.
His voice is captivating
Yes… He was an excellent narrator in Ken Burns documentaries
McCullough is one of my favorite writers. Have read & enjoyed most of his books. RIP
I really liked the book. He was also against slavery.
I had no idea he died. Why wasnt it on the news? What a great author. He made me fall in love with reading all over again. We'll have to put him on a stamp, or something. Like I always said about John Adams.....no statue, plaque, nothing in tribute to the man more instrumental in the founding of America than all the others......why?
The voice of American History! I hear him in my head whenever I read one of his books. TRUMAN is a favorite. He left a greet legscy
And his book on the building of the Brooklyn Bridge is genius. As a native New Yorker, it should be required reading, as most of us know little about our great city. His ability to pique everyones interest in anything is a gift. We'll miss him.
Just like will not see one with the genius of John Adams ever again, neither we will ever see anyone with the gentlemanly grace, charm, and sheer erudition of David McCullough, Historian.
John Adams deserved that Mini series more than anyone, well done Mr. McCulough. I do also hope a John Adams Memorial is one day erected. For goodness sake, Adams was one of the earliest popular voices against Slavery, before his son John Quincy Adams or the infamous Abe Lincoln.
American history so worthy of scholars like David (reading good one on French-Indian war called Crucible of War). RIP
Enjoyed all of McCullough's books.
I love this interview. Thank you !!!
CBS Sunday Morning makes such great pieces on US Presidents!
David McCullough is right. I read his book on John Adams. I must say I was impressed with John Adams more so than Jefferson and Ben Franklin with the exception of Washington. Adams isn't as well liked or charismatic as Washington, Jefferson, or Ben Franklin. But he played a key role in the independence movement. I like the fact that John Adams, as president sought peace and made sure to keep the US out of European affairs and established the Dept of Navy. Despite having a falling out with Jefferson, he still made sure the transfer of power took place when he left office.
I'll take the Behind-The-Scenes guy every time. They're the ones that make things actually work.
Now, I will have to get a hold of that book !
Great segment featuring a great man talking about another great man. That being said... Why did you close the segment with the song "Rule Britannia" playing? 😂
Rest in Peace David 🙏🏼🕯️🕊️🙏🏼
David McCullough - an immensely brilliant treasure. Rest in well-deserved peace. John Adams - The right man... at the right time.. and most certainly doing the right thing. I found it Staggering that CBS Sunday Morning, hosted by that world classmoron Jane Pauley, would be ending an interview about the life of one of the nation's great patriots with the music "Rule Britannia".
Strange that the outro music was "Hail Brittania"
An honest man, so difficult to find in politics, and so well-read! Most of all,a loving husband and father.
It wasn’t that long ago that we got meaningful programming from the major networks. Charles Osgood interviewing David McCullough about the Founding Fathers is a great example. It’s a disgrace to see what comes out of CBS, NBC and ABC today.
John Adam's is an American Giant
It's a great book about a great man, John Adams.
I read all of McCulloughs books. He would draw you into everyone of them. He loved our history more tham most. Not many understand what all the founding fathers lived through and patriots.. now its all about canceling these heros. When the people canceling wont give up 1 thing for the this country.
❤ John Adams was also against slavery and unlike all the other founding fathers he never had slaves!
10:04... Unless I am mistaken, that is "Rule, Britannia!" playing over John Adams's name. The editor or producer must have had a good laugh.
Amen to that!
What an American Hero was David McCulloch
Rip sir…
David McCullough was a National Treasure.
One of my favorite authors 😢
This report was at a time when the word "patriot" still did not mean radical right wing white christian nationalist.
Really sad a piece like this would not be welcome by the MainStreamMedia now. This is excellent by the last great historic journalists.
Best thing is that he does what he thinks is right regardless of personal cost.
It is my second favorite book (first being Undaunted Courage). An amazing life extremely well researched and documented!
A great patriot!
His last words "Jefferson lives".
Adams and Jefferson both died on July 4, 1826. Most sources claims that Adam's last words were, "Jefferson still lives". - Jefferson had died several hours earlier.
So why is "Rule Britannia" playing at the end???
Great to see this 👍 ....got a bitbof a chuckle with the comment about the Vice President .....insignificant ? not Cheney ....not Johnson
McCullough should be required reading in a restored Civics curriculum.
Um...why is "Rule, Britannia" being played as Mr. McCullough speaks at the segment's end?
"Rule Britannia"?? SMDH
He's my ancestor! Family dna and geology was done. Through my grandpa's side.
It is sad that Adams gets no recognition in the mention of the countries best presidents.Adams in contrast to the idea that is the U.S.A, was everything it is ment to be and stand for,it is a shame that so few really understand the potential this country has.The country has basically only reached about 40% of its true potential.The lack of comprehension of education has definitely hurt it's potential and as well the individuals true potential.
RIP 😇
J.A.was Not a Fan of Slavery, Heaven is for Heroes.
The loss of a great mind, agree or disagree matters not.
I think the issue is that Americans try to make it seem as if all of these men were just so perfect and no one is allowed to have warts or foibles or slaves for example I taught history and I taught who these men and women really were I taught about the American revolution as an economic revolution because that is what it was. History is real life people real life situations
It’s great to teach that historical figures weren’t perfect, they were real people, but some still engaged in evil behavior like slaveholding, which was thought of as evil and barbaric not only hundreds of years ago, but going back to the Romans and Egyptians.
This would never get aired today. He would be shamed.
What is misnomer?
Why on earth were you playing Rule, Britannia! at the end of this video?!
RIP David
Sad to say I'm glad McCullough has passed. I wouldn't want his patriotic heart broken by what is happening to the country.
Adams and Jefferson are rolling in their graves.
A few hundred years later the British returned with the Beetles. And the rest was history.
Maybe an Adam's - Madison Memorial as a salute to the less celebrated Founding Fathers.
Why did they choose Rule Britannia to be the song at the end
I am related to John Adams and Robert Treat Paine, whose signature is right below Adams. They were not related to each other. Probably few know that the George Bushes are also related to Paine. We all descended from Robert Treat. Adams from John Alden
The music Is rule Britannia
Someone has made an AI of McCullough's voice and is using it on videos here on RUclips. I wonder if his heirs have noticed.
Great to see Charles Osgood Pope Francis should have met him. What a great history lesson by the way.
I thought John Hancock was the one behind the Declaration Of Independence.
He was President of Continental Congress II, so he signed it first in big words.
He was also the cousin of Sam Adams
Rest in peace 🕊️ to the greatest teacher I never met.
If you ever saw "1776," you know Adams was "obnoxious and disliked" but solid.
Jefferson was not v heroic. He was never around in a war. He was x smart, a real scholar, an intellect
Jefferson and Adams
thought for us! 🇺🇸
@@drewhendley clever
Jefferson freed his 125 slaves only upon his death. He wanted the very last use of them until he really could not use them anymore.
@@libbyworkman3459 he was a clever man focused on himself
And a great intellect
all men are created equal , was what they wrote , elon ?
I will never understand WHY we do not have a - Adams national monument. We have Washington, Jefferson and Lincoln - but Adams contributed more and was not recognized…most due to jealousy. Let’s create an Adams National Monument in Washington DC.
Adams, Franklin and Jefferson. Always wondered why the two Adams' became Presidents, while Franklin didn't. Franklin contributed more than Samuel Adams in the founding of the U.S., I suppose timing was everything.
Samuel Adams was never President. He was John Adams' cousin. John Quincy Adams, John Adams son, became President.
sir please don’t waste my reporter friends time , your part of my problem your the beast .
"Next up, David McCullough discusses the gum he discovered on the bottom of his sho..." CLICK!
9:20 Rule Britannia!
Amazing the one vote abstantion pertaining to the foundation of the Country...
Wonder if the really had any idea of what they were doing?
Or was it naturally,
"I have to get home in one piece alive after this sh..t"-(Business Meeting)
Guess we'll never know?
[We all see the world different in different times]
Eat your heart out CNN! THIS is reporting and something the American people really care about.
CNN is not in charge of American History--YOU are. So--READ
Hilarious. Nowadays, people like you would be calling CBS “fake news media” 😂
@@Cinderella121 I've been calling them fake news before Donald Trump ever did
@@mikeywestside8509 So you’re fine with the reporting of John Adams but you consider everything else “fake news?”
Nic

….and 49% of Americans can ONLY quote the second amendment. It’s the only one they can see.
Make America British Again!
John Adams served as the nation’s first Vice President, prophetically pronouncing it, “The most insignificant office that ever the invention of man contrived.” And yet today we pursue the most contrived nonsense, the most contrived folly ever foisted on the American people.
A early morning raid with guns a blazing’ on a President’s home. A raid on Mar-a-Lago.
Not only did 30 special FBI agents descend on Mar-a-Lago unannounced in an early morning raid, but additionally, Nicolas Cage, Helen Mirren, Justin Bertha, Dianne Kruger, Harvey Keitel, Jon Voight and Katherine Zeta-Jones were invited by FBI special agent Ross to ride along on the raid. And while special FBI agents rifled through Melania’s closet looking for clues, boxes, and the secret code, the tag-along National Treasure cast were given exclusive access to a specially-prepared luncheon in the Mar-a-Lago ballroom along with full access to the swimming pool.
