Overview

With a novelist s skill and a scholar s meticulous detail, Fawn M. Brodie portrays Thomas Jefferson as he wrestled with the great issues of his time: revolution, religion, power, race, and love ambivalences that exerted a subtle but powerful influence on his political ideas and his presidency. Far advanced for its time, Brodie s biography was the first to set forth a convincing case that Thomas Jefferson was the father of children by his slave Sally Hemings. In a new introduction, Annette Gordon-Reed, the Pulitzer Prize winning author of The Hemingses of Monticello, explores the impact of Brodie s groundbreaking book and explains why it is still such a powerful account of one of our greatest and most elusive presidents."
