Ein vergnüglicher Live-Mitschritt einer Lesung aus dem zweiten Esche-Buch. "Zuallererst ist Eberhard Esche ein grandioser Darsteller. Einer, dem die wohlkalkulierte Sprechpause zum dramatischen - oder urkomischen - Höhepunkt gelingt, der sein Publikum mit spitzbübischem Charme und einer ganz unverhohlenen und daher sehr liebenswerten Eitelkeit mit dem kleinen Finger dirigiert und ihm dabei Häppchen zuwirft, Petitessen, leckere Kleinigkeiten in halben Sätzen, denen nach abgewogener Kunstpause ein weiteres Sätzchen folgt."

John Quincy Adams is the missing link in the classical era of American history which began with the Revolution and ended with Emancipation. Between these bookends lies the absorbing yet overshadowed epic of a new nation spearheading liberty's cause in a world skeptical of freedom arriving at all, much less in slaver's garb. M. B. Zucker takes listeners back to that adolescent country in the care of an enigmatic guide, John Quincy Adams, heir to one president by blood and another, Washington, by ideology.
