A wonderful book about the region Jefferson loved, written while he was a young circuit court lawyer. It includes geography, which he learned from his own father, who was a surveyor, and also includes thoughts on the Indian question. This is Jefferson's only full-length book.

Informative book but not your typical novel, I only read this for an 18th cent. literature class. It was extremely dry reading. Although, if you must read it, I recommend complimenting it with Benjamin Franklin's autobiography and perhaps David Walker's appeal.
