Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Jon Meacham offers a collection of inspiring words about how to be a good citizen, from Thomas Jefferson and others, and reminds us why our country's founding principles are still so important today. Thomas Jefferson believed in the covenant between a government and its citizens, in both the government's responsibilities to its people and also the people's responsibility to the republic. In this illuminating book, a project of the Thomas Jefferson Foundation at Monticello, the #1 New York Times bestselling author Jon Meacham presents selections from Jefferson's writing on the subject, with an afterword by Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Annette Gordon-Reed and comments on Jefferson's ideas from others, including Colin Powell, Madeleine Albright, Frederick Douglass, Carl Sagan, and American presidents. This curated collection revitalizes how to see an individual's role in the world, as it explores such Jeffersonian concepts as religious freedom, the importance of a free press, public education, participation in government, and others. Meacham writes, "In an hour of twenty-first-century division and partisanship, of declining trust in institutions and of widespread skepticism about the long-term viability of the American experiment, it is instructive to return to first principles. Not, to be sure, as an exercise in nostalgia or as a flight from the reality of our own time, but as an honest effort to see, as Jefferson wrote, what history may be able to tell us about the present and the future."Binding Type: Hardcover

Warm, soft, cozy… not very fluffy though
Color: Tide Pool Blue, Size: Full/Queen
I LOVE this comforter!! The color is beautiful, it’s super soft, it’s nice and warm, and it has a nice weight to it.
I will say it isn’t as fluffy as it seems in the pictures, there doesn’t seem to be any filling between the 2 layers, and if there is, it’s minimal. It’s more like the thickness of a similar double sided throw blanket.
It also has the tendency to grab any small debris which clings to it, but this is to be expected with this type of fabric. I would not recommend this comforter for pet owners as it will definitely be covered in hair and whatever else your furbabies may track in!
Despite the lack of fluffiness and it constantly holding on to any loose thread or other random debris, I am still very happy with my purchase. Very good comforter for the price and it looks beautiful on the bed!!

I originally got the King set & loved it so much I ordered another in Queen size!
Color: Charcoal, Size: King
I didn't add a picture because the advertised picture is exactly what it looks like (and my beds not made at the moment, lol). It's so soft, comfortable, cosey and warm. It's thicker and fluffier than I expected, but still very lightweight. The price was great for a king size bed with 2 king sized pillow cases! I love it so much I ordered a second set in Queen size, just to have the cases for my smaller queen pillows that go in front of the King pillows and to have the extra blanket as a cozy throw. The only drawback is it does snag easily on rings, fingernails, etc. (also another reason I ordered the second one to lay across the places that I've snagged & a few that were already snagged when I got them). However, it's so cozy that I didn't want to go through the hassle of sending it back and having to wait for a new one! I'm very glad that it was suggested as an add on when I ordered the mattress pad & that I chose to add it on. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone!

Love it!
Color: Red Buffalo Plaid, Size: Full/Queen
Instantly became my favorite comforter for winter months. Colors are vibrant and beautiful; soft and warm; appears to be durable. I would get another of it came in others colors. Paired with the Amazon Basics red buffalo plaid sheet set. Matches my pajamas and my dogs’ bandannas perfectly!
