Book Reviews of The Road to Monticello: The Life and Mind of Thomas Jefferson

Book Review: Highest Recommendation
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a splendid read. The research is impressive; the book is well written and a pleasure to read. Hayes offers a fresh, fascinating perspective that has enhanced my admiration of Jefferson and my own love of books. I pre-ordered his forthcoming book on Patrick Henry before I finished this one.
