Book Reviews of Twilight at Monticello: The Final Years of Thomas Jefferson
Book Review: The Waning Years of a Founding Father
Summary: 4 Stars
Yes, there are a lot of books about Thomas Jefferson, and most of them deal with his political years. Twilight at Monticello concerns Jefferson's post-political years as he deals with his garden, his family, and his crushing debt. I found it fascinating and one of the better books on Jefferson published in the last decade. Highly recommended.
