Thomas Jefferson : the art of power / Jon Meacham.

Meacham, Jon (Author).

Summary:

Explores Thomas Jefferson as politician and president, a complex human being forever engaged in the wars of his era. Philosophers think; politicians maneuver. Jefferson's genius was that he was both and could do both, often simultaneously, catapulting him into becoming the most successful political leader of the early republic, and perhaps in all of American history.--from publisher
