Thomas Jefferson's Military Academy: Founding West Point Book

This book was very interesting for the first half, and like most biographies and history books, the second half I was ready to put one to the skull. Let's start with the take off, the author tells the greatness of Jefferson and how well he treated his slaves. The slaves had a better lifestyle than regular whites yadayada yah. Then, author turns on you and says Jefferson is a racist prick. He had the most slaves at up to 250 and only released a handful with freedom when he passed on. I have noted Jefferson as the smartest prez, but Jefferson says Benjamin Franklin was smarter because he did not give his life to politics. Jefferson basically fucked off his family for his fame, his two daughters went on a girls gone wild bus cause daddy wasn't their. The last part of the book goes on about his mistress Sally the slave. He banged a slave and you got 200 pages to read about how they tried to publicize this act from the papers up to current T.V. Who gives a shit? They got busy. Took me three words, when it took Author 200 pages, what a fuquin geek.
