The Problem with Tom: Conflicting Legacy of Thomas Jefferson
At NSSC, Northfield Location:
Joyce Haworth, Historian and Instructor, College of Lake County
The author of the Declaration of Independence held almost 200 slaves: that's the problem with Thomas Jefferson. This class considers Jefferson's legacy based on two recent biographies: "Thomas Jefferson: The Art of Power" by Jon Meacham, which praises Jefferson; and "Master of the Mountain" by Henry Wiencek, which is critical of both Jefferson and his biographers.
