When Thomas Jefferson wrote his epitaph, he listed as his accomplishments his authorship of the Declaration of Independence and the Virginia statute of religious freedom, and his founding of the University of Virginia. He did not mention his presidency or that he was second governor of the state of Virginia, in the most trying hours of the Revolution. Joseph Ellis, author of American Sphinx, focuses on other parts of Jefferson's life but wrote that his actions as governor "toughened him on the inside."

Good book/bad reader
Revisado: 03-02-14
Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
Yes, it's an interesting account of a rather obscure series of Revolutionary events, as well as a window into Jefferson's character.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Flight from Monticello?
The account of Jefferson's escape with his family.
Would you be willing to try another one of Robert Feifar’s performances?
NO! There were a lot of wince-inducing mispronunciations, the worst being "calvary" for "cavalry" which, of course, occurred many, many, many times.
If this book were a movie would you go see it?
I might. It would depend on the reviews.
