Thomas Jefferson's Monticello

Ouvrage reçu plus tôt que prévu (j'avoue que l'excellente organisation d'Amazon doit être soulignée). Magnifique livre, tant sur le plan de la présentation que des textes qui l'accompagnent. Ayant visité Monticello, j'en parle en connaissance de cause. J'ai passé des heures délicieuses en compagnie de ce livre : j'en recommande la lecture à toutes celles et tous ceux qui souhaiteraient en savoir davantage sur Thomas Jefferson !

No need to keep Monticello in memory alone! Return home to Monticello with this exquisitely photographed book produced by the Thomas Jefferson Foundation. This is the keep sake sold at Monticello gift shops. Perfect size for a coffee table, but not too large or cumbersome. Spectacular glossy photos of both the interiors and grounds in all seasons! Some photos comprise entire page. Chapters include: Essay in Architecture; A Look Inside; Furnishing Monticello; The Gardens; The Plantation. Also a fantastic "amazon" price for this beautiful, high quality book. Definitely a MUST purchase!

I've wanted this book ever since I visited Monticello several years ago. Book was in great condition and carefully packaged. Enjoyed the personal note from the seller too!

The book came in a timely basis and it was in good shape. The book give a lot of good information on Monticello. I liked the pictures of the inside since you are not allowed to take pictures inside Monticello on tours.

I have been a fan, for lack of a better word, of Thomas Jefferson for many years. He was a remarkable statesman, planter, architect and a brilliant mind. The book not only shows the reader Monticello in great pictures and text, it also reveals a good deal about Thomas Jefferson himself and the world in which he lived.
