"Though I am a bit of a history buff, I was especially caught up by Jefferson's careful use of logic to deduce the existence of the woolly mammoth as a likely defunct and separate species from the elephant.
I yawned my way through his accounts of rivers and minerals, though. Get to the politics, buddy!"
"This is an informative, interesting study of Virgina in the late 18th-early 19th century. Jefferson's interests in anthropology, linguistics, geography, geology, and many other social and natural sciences are clearly evident in this work."
