Xvi, [2], 414 pages, 8 plates, cloth, DJ, very good. 1st edition. From Publishers Weekly: "Cunningham succeeds admirably in his biography of Jefferson, intended for both scholars and general readers. The University of Missouri historian conveys not only the details of Jefferson's career as a politician and polymath, but the evolution of his thinking as expressed in Notes on the State of Virginia and other writings. He shows that Jefferson's belief in "the sufficiency of reason for the care of human affairs" sustained his political principles and his faith in progress and education. Cunningham, author of earlier books on the man and his era (The Image of Thomas Jefferson in the Public Eye, etc. ) , writes well and with evident authority in this rich work.
