Illustrated by
Mark Elliott.
Published in association with The Thomas Jefferson Foundation. A former curator at Thomas Jefferson's Monticello takes readers on a tour of the historical museum through a fictionalized one-day account of how the third U.S. president spent his time. An easy-flowing but often idealized present-tense narrative is accompanied by a combination of photographs, archival images, and Elliott's static illustrations. Slavery is lightly addressed through a series of sidebars. Timeline. Bib., ind.
