From School Library Journal
Grades 7-10--A clear, crisp biography. A working familiarity with American history will increase its value as Whitelaw looks at all sides of the man, his many passions and his many failings. While full of the expected facts, such as his love of books, authorship of the Declaration of Independence, creation of the University of Virginia, and affair with Sally Hemings, matters that are less well-known (sometimes for understandable reasons) are also included: the first shipment of bricks for the building of Monticello numbered 45,000 and at the end of his life Jefferson had a urinary tract infection. The black-and-white reproductions are somewhat indistinct and faded looking. Plenty of words have been printed about this important figure and this work takes its place comfortably in the middle of the pack. A solid and practical book for reports.
