Thomas Jefferson Digital Archive

Personally my favorite US president, but enough about that, compliled by the University of Virgina Library, which is fitting, Jefferson founded the University, comes the Thomas Jefferson Digital Archive. With over 15,000 manuscripts made into E-Book form, one could spend quite some time getting to know the principal author of the Declaration of Independence, and the 3rd US President. I suggest giving The Jefferson Bible a look. Yes, Jefferson rewrote the Bible. Often being accused of being an Athiest and enemy of religion, this was one of his many answers back. A very intresting and still controversial figure in our nations history.
