Where in the world is John Adams?

Last time, I wrote a blog about a fascinating Twitter feed chronicling a journey of the second U.S. president, John Adams.

Now, an enterprising Tweeter has created a Google map that follows Adams’ progress at sea.

It’s a great example of how visuals bring content to life. The map illustrates how extensive the journey was, and how long it took to travel using wind power in 1809.

Enjoy your weekend!
