About the book

An Expression of the American Mind brings together writings by Thomas Jefferson, allowing his political ideas and personal interests to be encountered in his own words. Questions of independence, representative government, religious freedom and the purposes of education sit within a wider intellectual curiosity about the world. The selection reveals both the reach of Jefferson's ideals and the tensions that make his legacy difficult to simplify. Read as political thought and historical testimony, it offers a direct encounter with a central voice in the American Revolution and the early republic.
