Inventing America: Jefferson's Declaration of Independence

by Garry Wills

About this title: From one of America's foremost historians, Inventing America compares Thomas Jefferson's original draft of the Declaration of Independence with the final, accepted version, thereby challenging many long-cherished assumptions about both the man and the document. Although Jefferson has long been idealized as a champion of individual rights, Wills argues that in fact his vision was one in which interdependence, not self-interest, lay at the foundation of society.

"After years of reading bits by or about him in the NY Review of Books and elsewhere, this was the first book by Garry Wills I actually found in a used bookstore and eventually read. A revisionist account of Jefferson's political beliefs, I was particularly struck by the part about Jefferson's views regarding Africans and slavery."
