    From George Washington’s earliest known letter (he was just 17) to a meticulously folded page containing a scientific observation made by Thomas Jefferson while he was walking outside on a misty day, this tour offers an intimate view of the Founding Fathers’ writings to family, friends, colleagues and even themselves. A rare opportunity to know our nation’s icons as real people: fathers, spurned lovers, jealous politicians, intellectuals and, of course, revolutionaries. Washington, Jefferson, Adams and Franklin form the core of the tour.
