How did a red-haired, freckled-faced boy who loved to read, spoke several languages, and played the violin, grow up to write the Declaration of Independence, become the second Vice President and, after a bitter political battle with old friend John Adams, the third President of the United States? This pleasantly written biography about Thomas Jefferson tells the tale in an easy-to-read style. In addition to Jefferson's amazing professional and political life, the book objectively discusses Jefferson's desire to eliminate slavery and why he didn't. Also blended into the discussion are aspects of his personal life, his adoration for his father, how he met and married his wife Martha, the grief of losing her and three of their five children. The book carefully discusses his subsequent relationship with Sandy Hemings and their children. The pen-and-ink illustrations give the feel of the era. Side-by-side timelines of Jefferson's life and world history of the time are a nice addition.

杰斐逊是美国的开国元勋,他的民主自由思想为世人带来福音,不仅是美国人的骄傲,也是全人类的骄傲。

内容简介

Did you know that John Adams had to coax Thomas Jefferson into writing the Declaration of Independence? It's true. The shy Virginia statesman refused at first, but then went on to author one of our nation's most important and inspiring documents. The third U.S. president, Jefferson was also an architect, inventor, musician, farmer, and-what is certainly the most troubling aspect of his life-a slave owner. Finally, here's a biography for kids that unveils the many facets of this founding father's remarkable and complicated life. Illustrated by John O'Brien.

托马斯·杰斐逊是美国开国元勋之一，是《独立宣言》的执笔人，也是美国第三任总统；既是革命家、政治家，又是学者、思想家和教育家。在美国人民的心目中，他是与华盛顿、林肯齐名的美国三大伟人之一。美国人民之所以为此推崇杰斐逊，不仅因为他为美国人民建立了丰功伟绩，而且也因为他是一个精神力量，他的民主思想、优秀的品德及政治魄力，对美国人民及后世发生了巨大的影响，并且是激发美国人民的强大动力。
