Robert Pierce Forbes’s painstaking research into Thomas Jefferson's “Notes on the State of Virginia” is impressive. But his conjectures about the portions of the book that still stain the great man’s reputation only perpetuate the mysteries. https://t.co/YFi3EVSX23

@dpas2009 It was published in 1853. (Credit: Notes on the State of Virginia, by Thomas Jefferson, J.W. Randolph Virginia published 1853) but I will make sure that is updated from "writing in 1853" to "published in 1853." Thank you for the heads up! attn: @clareamurphy
