The Jefferson lies
Exposing the Myths You've Always Believed About Thomas Jefferson
Book • 2012
In this book, David Barton aims to debunk several myths about Thomas Jefferson, including claims that Jefferson was an atheist, a racist, or that he fathered children with his slave Sally Hemings.
Barton argues that these perceptions are distortions created by liberal academics and the media.
He uses original documents and historical sources to support his claims, although his methodology and conclusions have been widely criticized by historians and scholars for being flawed and promoting a Christian nationalist agenda.
