This is a story told by Martha (Patsy) Jefferson about her life with her father, Thomas Jefferson, and her husband and family. The story begins in France where Thomas Jefferson is a diplomat to France and Patsy is about 14 or 15. There she makes a life long friend, William Short. It tells about their life when they return to Monticello, the plantation that Thomas Jefferson designed. He is also the founder of the University of VA. She marries Tom Randolph who becomes a Governor of VA. I think this book would be enjoyed by young adult readers as well as adult.
