Pulitzer Prize-winning author Jon Meacham gives us a complete vision of Thomas Jefferson the man, from birth to his last days - through the Revolutionary War and his years as President. We see the Founding Father who steered the states to nationhood, wrote the Declaration of Independence and, as a master politician and President, doubled the size of America through the Louisiana Purchase. With a readable and compelling narrative, Meacham guides us through the life and extraordinary times of a man often admired but, before now, never truly understood in all his complexity. Paperback.
