| Zusammenfassung: | In a narrative both panoramic and intimate, Chaffin captures the four-decade friendship of Thomas Jefferson and the Marquis de Lafayette Thomas Jefferson first met the Marquis de Lafayette in 1781, when the young French-born general was dispatched to Virginia to assist Jefferson, then the state's governor, in fighting off the British. The two could not have seemed more different. When Jefferson moved to Paris three years later as a diplomat, speaking little French and in need of a partner, their friendship began in earnest. Chaffin shows how their friendship endured through the making of two revolutions-- and two nations, to a powerful and emotional reunion at Monticello in 1824. -- adapted from jacket |

The two could not have seemed more different. When Jefferson moved to Paris three years later as a diplomat, speaking little French and in need of a partner, their friendship began in earnest. Chaffin shows how their friendship endured through the making of two revolutions-- and two nations, to a powerful and emotional reunion at Monticello in 1824. -- adapted from jacket Jefferson, Thomas 1743-1826 (DE-588)118711962 gnd rswk-swf Lafayette, Marie Joseph Paul Yves Roch Gilbert Du Motier de 1757-1834 (DE-588)118725920 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte 1743-1824 gnd rswk-swf Politik (DE-588)4046514-7 gnd rswk-swf USA (DE-588)4078704-7 gnd rswk-swf Jefferson, Thomas / 1743-1826 / Friends and associates Lafayette, Marie Joseph Paul Yves Roch Gilbert Du Motier / marquis de / 1757-1834 / Friends and associates United States / History / Revolution, 1775-1783 / Participation, French France / History / Revolution, 1789-1799 United States / Politics and government / 1775-1783 United States / Politics and government / 1783-1809 Diplomats / United States / Biography Statesmen / France / Biography Revolutionaries / France / History / 18th century HISTORY / United States / Revolutionary Period (1775-1800) BIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY / Historical BIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY / Presidents & Heads of State Jefferson, Thomas / 1743-1826 Lafayette, Marie Joseph Paul Yves Roch Gilbert Du Motier / marquis de / 1757-1834 American Revolution (1775-1783) Revolution (France : 1789-1799) Diplomats Friendship Military participation / French Politics and government Revolutionaries Statesmen France United States Diplomats / Biography Statesmen / Biography United States / History / 1775-1783, Revolution France / History / 1789-1799, Revolution United States / Politics and government 1700-1809 Biographies History (DE-588)4006804-3 Biografie gnd-content Jefferson, Thomas 1743-1826 (DE-588)118711962 p Lafayette, Marie Joseph Paul Yves Roch Gilbert Du Motier de 1757-1834 (DE-588)118725920 p DE-604 USA (DE-588)4078704-7 g Politik (DE-588)4046514-7 s Geschichte 1743-1824 z |
