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."

What would have made Flight from Monticello better?
A narrator who could pronounce words correctly.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Flight from Monticello?
I've read the book--it's got many memorable bits. I recommend anyone interested in TJ or the period buy the book. Save your Audible credits for something else.
How could the performance have been better?
Get someone who can pronounce the worlds. "Gloucester" is not pronounced like it looks. "Burgesses" has a soft G. I gave up in the first chapter so I'm sure there are many more.
You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?
No problems with the book.
Any additional comments?
I will always check the comments before buying another book at Audible. Some narrators are better than others but this one is worthless. Suggest someone at Audible at least give heir products a listen....
