  • Summary

  • After completing the biography of "The Real Thomas Jefferson" with Andy Allison, W. Cleon Skousen gives a beautiful recap of the book and the life of this remarkable Founder. He portrays not only the life and legacy of Thomas Jefferson, but also the spirit of Thomas Jefferson, truly one of America's foremost founding fathers.

    Jefferson's unyielding commitment to personal integrity, principles of liberty and self-determination launched his influential role in drafting the Declaration of Independence, principles of self-governance, and ultimately President of the United States.

    Unknown to many casual history students, Jefferson had many trials, both personal and professional, including the deep sorrow from personal losses and the vengeful, scandalous accusations during his presidency.

    Dr. Skousen provides insight into Jefferson's influence on American law and governance, his presidency, and his lasting impact on the nation's path towards freedom and democracy. A reflection on his visionary reforms in Virginia and his post-presidency years offers a comprehensive portrayal of his enduring contributions.
