In 1784 Thomas Jefferson moved to the sophisticated and exhilarating city of Paris, where he spent the next five years as ambassador from the new United States of America. This engaging book recreates in word and illustration the atmosphere and personalities of prerevolutionary Paris, and it reveals the profound impact they had on one of America's first transatlantic citizens.
