Fans of Jefferson, Monticello, and neo-Classical architecture will enjoy this volume. Howard (he has written on historic preservation) has written an intelligent text on Jefferson's life, education, influences, and most importantly, his many architectural projects. The text is well illustrated with many superb color photos by Roger Straus III, including details of interiors when possible (there are many of Monticello). Groundplans are included for many of the buildings. Annotation ©2003 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
