Acerca de este título
This is the first volume of distinguished historian Dumas Malone┬É’s Pulitzer Prize–winning six-volume work on the life and times of Thomas Jefferson. Based on vast resources, it covers Jefferson’s ancestry, youth, education, and legal career; his marriage and the building of Monticello; the drafting of the Declaration of Independence and the Notes on Virginia; his highly controversial governorship; and his early services to the development of the West.
This is no mere introduction to the third president of the United States. This is a detailed, elegantly written account of a brilliant political mind and his life in Virginia.
©1948 Dumas Malone (P)1998 Blackstone Audio, Inc.Reseñas de la crítica
“This is going to be the Jefferson…it will endure as one of the imperishable monuments of biography—and take note that I don’t say ‘American biography,’ I say biography period.”
“Malone is the giant on whose shoulders every subsequent scholar of Jefferson stands, and his work remains seminal in shaping our understanding of who Jefferson was. Both from a purely scholarly standpoint and outside the groves of academe, Malone’s biography of Jefferson is simply a gread read.”
“Jefferson and His Time is a masterly achievement of scholarship, the finest biography of Jefferson we have or are likely to have, and a monumental triumph of the senior American historian.”
“Prodigiously researched and felicitously written, Dumas Malone’s multi-volume Jefferson and His Time is one of the great biographies of the twentieth century.”
“‘Perfect’ best describes Anna Fields’ reading of a very detailed account of Thomas Jefferson’s first forty-one years.”
