The Quotable Jefferson Hardcover - 2006
by Thomas Jefferson; John P. Kaminski (Editor)
More than any other Founding Father, Thomas Jefferson made his reputation on the brilliance of his writing, and few writers have said so much on so many subjects. This comprehensive book demonstrates that thoroughly.
From the rear cover
"Succeeding admirably in condensing the best quotes from around twenty thousand letters, this book will awaken some readers to the wit and wisdom of Jefferson, and enable others to rediscover it. Here is Jefferson in his own words, without historians acting as intermediaries. It is very fortunate to have an editor of John Kaminski's caliber produce such an accessible and useful volume."--Andrew O'Shaughnessy, Saunders Director at the Robert H. Smith International Center for Jefferson Studies at Monticello, author of An Empire Divided
"John P. Kaminski, whose impressive editorial work places him among the most knowledgeable scholars of the founding period, has selected a highly readable and insightful collection of observations by Thomas Jefferson. True to Jefferson's brilliance and probing intellect, Kaminski organizes these materials to suit the taste of the modern reader."--Whitman H. Ridgway, University of Maryland, author of Community Leadership in Maryland, 1790-1840
