About this audiobook
THOMAS JEFFERSON
Thomas Jefferson was there in the thick of it all, right when the Revolution was brewing and after. While not all of his ideas and beliefs were perfect, he had a beautiful dream of democracy that proposed a break from tyranny, freedom, and strengthened the power of the common man.
The purpose of this book is to outline and describe the life and times of Thomas Jefferson, one of our most famous founding fathers. Not only does it discuss his prelude to the presidency and his time in office, but it digs deeper than that. It also focuses on his experience with the law, how that led him to the political world, and how his presidency and life afterwards helped create for him a legacy of fighting for freedom. It also details his quiet life after the presidency and how he still kept up his pursuit of knowledge even though he had removed himself from public life.
