Abstract Kranish describes Jefferson's many stumbles as he struggled to respond to the British invasion of colonial Virginia, and along the way, the author paints an intimate portrait of Jefferson, illuminating his quiet conversations, his family turmoil, his private hours at Monticello, and the lessons he learned during those dark hours as Virginia's governor that would serve him all his life.
