520    Who was the 'real' Thomas Jefferson? If this question has 
       an answer, it will probably not be revealed to anyone 
       attempting to read the many accounts of his life. For two 
       centuries, biographers have provided divergent 
       perspectives on him as a man and conflicting appraisals of
       his accomplishments. Controversial in his own time, 
       Jefferson's propensity to polarize continued in the years 
       after his death as biographers battled to control the 
       commanding heights of history. To judge from their 
       depictions, there existed many different Thomas 
       Jeffersons. This book explores how individual biographers 
       have shaped history - as well as how the interests and 
       preoccupations of the times in which they wrote helped to 
       shape their portrayals of Jefferson. In different eras 
       biographers presented the third president as a proponent 
       of individual rights and majority rule, as a unifier and a
       fierce partisan, as well as a champion of American 
       nationalism and global citizenship. Conscripted to serve 
       Whigs and Democrats, abolitionists and slaveholders, 
       unionists and secessionists, Populists and Progressives, 
       and seemingly every side of just about every subsequent 
       struggle, the only constant was that Jefferson's image 
       remained a mirror of Americans' self-conscious 
       understanding of their nation's virtues and vices. This 
       book brings together leading scholars of Jefferson and his
       era, all of whom embrace the challenge to assess some of 
       the most important and enduring accounts of Jefferson's 
       life.--description provided by publisher.
