Description
Bibliography. American History. Published by Chester River Press, Kindred Spirits is a bibliocentric memoir chronicling the acquisition and restoration of seven rare books from Jefferson's Retirement Library at Monticello. This is the remarkable story of the serendipitous discovery of a seven-volume set of Aeschylus's Tragedies owned by Thomas Jefferson, and the many bibliophiles, Jeffersonians, historians, scholars, and yes, Ancient Greeks, who helped complete a journey of personal fulfillment and historical significance, all the while honoring one of our most accomplished Founding Fathers. Share Barry Buckley's thoughts and emotions as he gazes for the first time on Jefferson's personal book markings, oversees the book restoration process, and with renowned author Maureen Stack Sappey, traces the connections from Ancient Greece up through the centuries to the fledgling United States.
