Samenvatting
'A spirited attack on Thomas Jefferson . But Conor Cruise O'Brien proposes - in this magisterial 1998 work - that Jefferson's own passions waned in the America of the 1790s once French egalitarian ideals ran up against the slave-based Southern economy he supported. 'His thesis will seem like heresy to many people in America .
