Description

"Completed in 1819, Thomas Jefferson's revision of the Bible's four Gospels, which he literally cut-and-pasted together, is presented here in its entirety, with an introduction by novelist Percival Everett. Unable to fully resolve the contradictions of the third President's moral code and religious preoccupations, Everett imagines a trip east to Monticello to challenge Jefferson directly."--BOOK JACKET.
