There is something that you may think ridiculous, darn coincidental or even unbelievable, but when it comes to HISTORY, you have to buy it.
I am reading the most famous case in the history of the United States: Marbury V. Madison. This case is so important and meaningful for the current law system because it set up the foundation that the Supreme court has the power of judicial review.
Back to the point, the legendary fact. From that case, we can see how bad the relationship between Thomas Jefferson and John Adam is. But something that would be unbelievable if included in a novel happened—Adams and Jefferson had been dear friends, and then came their falling out. They didn't even speak to one another for eleven years. But they both died on the same day—July 4 (Independence Day), 1826. Adam's last words? "Thomas Jefferson survives."
