Thomas Jefferson is often portrayed as a hopelessly enigmatic figure. A man so riven with contradictions that he is almost impossible to know. Lauded as the most articulate voice of American freedom and equality, even as he held people in bondage, Jefferson is variably described as a hypocrite, an atheist, or a simple-minded proponent of limited government who expected all Americans to be farmers forever. Author: Annette Gordon-Reed and Peter S. Onuf. Paperback; 400 pages. # 21105392
