Description

Includes first-hand accounts of Thomas Jefferson's demeanor at his successor's inauguration and one of the most detailed descriptions of life at Monticello by a visitor. This volume tells of his efforts to restore order at his mismanaged mill complex, breed merino sheep, and otherwise resume full control of his financial and agricultural affairs.
