Book Description

Charlottesville: University Press of Virginia, 1995 xx, 334 pp. Illustrations, chronology, notes, index. This book demystifies the Jefferson of American legend and recovers the 18th-century man of sentiment Thomas Jefferson actually was. The author confronts widespread misunderstandings about Jefferson's romantic life and provides insight into the contradictions that still surround the U.S.'s third president. He shows Jefferson to have been a man of substance and character, yet possessed of a mean streak, alternately strong and frail, convivial and reclusive, ordinary and extraordinary. CONDITION: Embossed stamp of former owner on title page, else as new.. First Edition. Hardcover. Like New/Like New. 16 x 25 cm.
