Thomas Jefferson Still Survives!: Thomas Jefferson, in His Own Words, Speaks out on Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness. Mike Thorsen

"Thomas Jefferson Still Survives!" were, 2nd President of the United States, John Adams' final words. In point of fact, his friend, Thomas Jefferson, had died earlier that same day, on July 4th 1826. However, Adams' comment can be taken another way, in that Thomas Jefferson's work and wisdom lives on in the Declaration of Independence, the Virginia Statute for Religious Freedom, and the University of Virginia, as well as in many other areas such as the real estate a great many Americans live on, previously known as the Louisiana Purchase. Certainly, it is hard to find another American who has contributed more to the success of the United States of America than Thomas Jefferson. His wisdom helped lead a fledgling nation into greatness and, surely, can help us continue that greatness and add to it today. After reading Thomas Jefferson's collected wisdom in this book you will truly believe that "Thomas Jefferson Still Survives!"
