"This American classic is the only full-length book written and published by Thomas Jeffersn during his lifetime. Written in 1781, Notes on the State of Virginia was begun by Jefferson as a commentary on the resources and institutions of his home state, but the work's lasting value lies in its delineation of Jefferson's major philosophical, political, scientific, and ethical beliefs. Along with his accounts of such factual matters as North American flora and fauna, Jefferson expounds his views on slavery, education, religious freedom, representative government, and the separation of church and state. The book is the best single statement of Jefferson's principles and the best reflection of his wide-ranging tastes and talents. This edition, meticulously edited by William Peden, was originally published by the University of North Carolina Press in 1955." - from the rear outer cover. "[Peden] has made available the authoritative edition of one of the most important books to emerge in eighteenth-century America. He has set forth the history of its reception and criticism in such a way as to establish his point that in the 'Notes on Virginia' Jefferson 'produced one of America's first permanent literary and intellectual landmarks.'

Adrienne Koch (SeptembAfter her… bachelor's degree from New York University, Koch took her a doctorate in philosophy from Columbia. Koch taught at Tulane University, the University of California at Berkeley, and the University of Michigan, before being appointed professor of history at the University of Maryland. She still held this post when she died. William Peden was an influential academic and writer, (March 22, 1913-July 23, 1999). He pursued extensive education, earning a B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. from the University of Virginia. His teaching career was predominantly at the University of Missouri. Peden was recognized for his editorial work. Derived from a review published in the Pennsylvania Magazine of History and Biography, Vol. 71, issue 2, April 1947 by Dexter Perkins, University of Rochester: What has attracted Miss Koch and Mr. Peden, on the whole, is the philosophical, rather than the severely practical aspects of the Adams' mind. But with this small reservation, it is fair to say that in these pages is compressed the very best of two remarkable men. discontent at the results; the personal grappling with the truths of religion, respect for education, and interest in it; a democracy strongly favored with the principles of aristocracy, acid criticism of others, all these things come out in the pages of the Selected Writings. On the side of political theory, neither the elder nor the younger Adams was in any sense a theoretical democrat. John Adams believed in a balanced government, and wrote much to prove his point. John Quincy Adams looked with a cold and practical eye upon the revolutions in Latin America, and indulged in no such ardently idealistic democratic hopes for the new republics as did some of his contemporaries. Both men were as little disposed to bow before King Mob, as they were to bend the knee to the wealthy or the powerful. Despite the somewhat aristocratic flavor of his thinking, Adams the elder could write, of the rich, that they were "seldom remarkable for modesty, ingenuity or humanity. Their wealth has rather a tendency to make them penurious and selfish." Could such men succeed, or even survive in public life today? That is one of the most sober and perhaps most disturbing questions presented by this correspondence. Miss Koch and Mr. Peden have done well in making available to us in relatively brief form so much of what is fundamental and central in the lives and thought of the two great New Englanders and of two great Americans. First Edition [stated], presumed first printing.

Name of previous owner inside front cover. This was published for the Institute of Early American History and Culture at Williamsburg, Virginia. DJ worn, scuffed, torn, soiled and chipped. Thomas…Jefferson (April 13, 1743 - July 4, 1826) was an American statesman, diplomat, lawyer, architect, philosopher, and Founding Father who served as the third president of the United States from 1801 to 1809. He was previously the nation's second vice president under John Adams and the first United States secretary of state under George Washington. The principal author of the Declaration of Independence, Jefferson was a proponent of democracy, republicanism, and individual rights, motivating American colonists to break from the Kingdom of Great Britain and form a new nation. He produced formative documents and decisions at state, national, and international levels. During the American Revolution, Jefferson represented Virginia in the Continental Congress that adopted the Declaration of Independence. As a Virginia legislator, he drafted a state law for religious freedom. He served as the second Governor of Virginia from 1779 to 1781, during the Revolutionary War. In 1785, Jefferson was appointed the United States Minister to France, and subsequently, the nation's first secretary of state under President George Washington from 1790 to 1793. Jefferson and James Madison organized the Democratic-Republican Party to oppose the Federalist Party during the formation of the First Party System. Notes on the State of Virginia (1785) is a book written by the American statesman, philosopher, and planter Thomas Jefferson. He completed the first version in 1781 and updated and enlarged the book in 1782 and 1783. It originated in Jefferson's responses to questions about Virginia posed to each of the thirteen states in 1780 by François Barbé-Marbois, the Secretary of the French delegation in Philadelphia, the temporary capital of the Continental Congress. Notes on the State of Virginia is both a compilation of data by Jefferson about the state's natural resources and economy and his vigorous argument about the nature of the good society, which he believed to be incarnated by Virginia. He expressed his beliefs in the separation of church and state, constitutional government, checks and balances, and individual liberty. He also wrote extensively about slavery, his dislike of miscegenation, justifications of white supremacy, and his belief that Whites and Black Americans could not co-exist in a society in which Blacks were free. It was the only full-length book that Jefferson published during his lifetime. He first had it published anonymously in Paris by Philippe Denis Pierres in 1785 while Jefferson serving the U.S. government as a trade representative. A French translation by Abbé Morellet appeared in 1787. In London, John Stockdale published it in 1787 after Jefferson had come to terms for a limited print run and other arrangements. Notes includes some of Jefferson's most memorable statements of belief in political, legal, and constitutional principles like the separation of church and state, constitutional government, checks and balances, and individual liberty. Jefferson meticulously documented, to his abilities, the natural resources of Virginia and fiercely opposed the proposition of the French naturalist Georges Louis Leclerc, Comte de Buffon, whose authoritative Histoire Naturelle stated that nature, plant life, animal life, and human life degenerate in the New World in contrast with their state in the Old World. Notes on the State of Virginia contained Jefferson's firm belief in citizens' rights to express themselves freely without fear of government or church reprisal and that government's role is only secular and should not have anything to do with religion.[5] That led later to charges of atheism leveled at him by his opponents in Federalist newspapers before the nasty.
