Reviews

A fresh interpretation. . . . No previous biography matches this one in depicting Jefferson's far-ranging and insatiable intellect, his sense of humor or the spiritual dimension of his thought.
*Publishers Weekly*

An engrossing biography that pays full tribute to Jefferson's personal genius and political achievements.
*Kirkus*

A fine sequel to the first volume, written with clarity and style . . . the conclusion of a most ambitious Jefferson biography.
*Jack McLaughlin, author of Jefferson and Monticello, a National Book Award nominee*

Alf Mapp's second volume on Thomas Jefferson is even better than his first. This picture of Jefferson's life, character, and achievements from the time of his presidency until his death is brilliantly revealing and sharply etched. The catholicity of his genius and his astonishing accomplishments despite waning strength, physical ills and impending financial disaster are masterfully described.
*Virginius Dabney*
