(4) 4-6 Referring to the biography's subject informally as "Tom," Ferris traces Jefferson's childhood as well as his varied and colorful political career, during which he was elected the new nation's third president. Somewhat stiffly written, the book mentions Jefferson's ownership of slaves but glosses over his alleged relationship with Sally Hemmings. Illustrated with black-and-white photos and historical reproductions. Bib., ind.
Reviewer: Jack Forman
