Review title: Poor History
Product review: The one excerpt I read from this book - a conversation between Dolley and 'Jimmy' Madison regarding Sally Hemings and her sister 'Betsey', calling Jefferson 'Tom' and referring to Sally and 'Betsey' as 'toddlers' when they came to Monticello - reveals the worst research I have ever seen on the subject, a complete lack of knowledge of the period, and the sort of 'First Name/Last Name' reference common to uneducated writers writing historical fiction of late.With all due respect, Madison's nickname was 'Jemmy'; Sally Hemings' sister BETTY Brown was a good deal older than a toddler when she came to Monticello (Sally was a year old and thus a toddler); and Mr. Jefferson was known to his VERY intimate friends as Thomas; and Mrs. Madison would hardly have lectured her husband on Martha Wayles Jefferson - a women her husband knew well and she not at all.I shudder to think what the rest of this book is like, if this half-page is any example! One star because I can't give it zero.
