"The Youth of Jefferson, or a Chronicle of Student Adventures in Williamsburg, Virginia, in the Year 1764" is a fascinating book written by John Esten Cook. It tells the story of young Thomas Jefferson, the future president of the United States, when he was studying in college in the city of Williamsburg. This book is not only a magnificent portrait of an American politician in his youth, but also a fascinating sketch of college life in the second half of the 18th century. The author helps the reader to imagine the atmosphere of that time, where students enter into conflicts, friendships, romances, experience ridicule and defeat - all this is reproduced with a peculiar humor and romance. "Jefferson's Youth" is not only a book about student life, but also a deep Victorian study of friendship, honor, courage and maturity.
