Thomas Jefferson, Lawyer
by Frank L. Dewey
[Dewey] presents a comprehensive view of Jeffersons life in
the period 1768 to 1774. The author considers how Jefferson prepared for
the law, how he acquired clients, and why he failed financially and retired
after only eight years of practice. . . . Dewey draws on a wide range
of sources: documents in Jeffersons own handwriting, including notebooks,
legal diaries, case books, and even scraps of paper; court records; and
other colonial sources.North Carolina Historical Review

Yankee Correspondence: Civil War Letters between New

Edited by Nina Silber and Mary Beth Sievens
These letters by New England soldiers and their families, many published

with the army, home-front suffering, and government policies. They are
grouped by six major themes: the military experience, the meaning of the
war, views of the South, politics on the home front, the personal sacrifices
of war, and the correspondence of one New England family.

Fatal Glory: Narciso López and the First Clandestine

The story of Narciso Lópezs daring invasions of Cuba has
remained one of the great lost sagas of American history. Wildly famous
during the mid-nineteenth century, he led the first armed challenge to
Spains long dominion over Cuba. Drawn from archives in both the
U.S. and Cuba and enlivened by first-person accounts, Fatal Glory
is a fascinating adventure story.

and it seeks to assess systematically their efforts. I can hardly imagine
a more interesting, comprehensive, and rigorous study of the subject.Lee

Flowerdew One Hundred: The Archaeology of a Virginia Plantation,
1619–1864
James Deetz
Here is the story of Flowerdew Hundred, the 1,000-acre plantation Sir
George Yeardley, Virginia’s first governor, established on the south
side of the James River roughly halfway between present-day Richmond and
Williamsburg. The succession of its residents, from colonial times through
the nineteenth century, left behind a record of their passing in the form
of broken dishes and bottles, animal bones, building foundations, pipe
stems, and a wealth of other material. Deetz draws on these artifacts
to construct some 250 years of life at Flowerdew.
