Mr. Jefferson’s University by Garry Wills
Requirements: ePUB Reader, 2.5MB
Overview: In the paperback edition of the critically acclaimed hardcover, bestselling author and Pulitzer Prize-winner Garry Wills explores Thomas Jefferson’s final and favorite achievement, the University of Virginia.
The University of Virginia is one of America’s greatest architectural treasures and one of Thomas Jefferson’s proudest achievements. At his request his headstone says nothing of his service as America’s first Secretary of State or its third President. It says simply: “Here was buried Thomas Jefferson, author of the Declaration of American Independence, of the Statute of Virginia for Religious Freedom, and Father of the University of Virginia.” For this political genius was a supremely gifted artist as well, and of all Jefferson’s stunning accomplishments, the school he built in Charlottesville is perhaps the most perfect expression of the man himself: as leader, as architect, and as philosopher.
