Status Updates From Jeffersonian Legacies

I needed to take break in reading this, old age may be unavoidable but I don't recommend it. The essays vary as such things always do. Those by Lucia Stanton and Paul Finkelman on Jefferson and slavery satisfy the lovers of conspiracy theories however, for me, the star essay is by Herbert Sloan: The Earth belongs in Usufruct to the Living. It sounds too academic but it quietly fills a gap between Jefferson and debt.
