I am continually amazed and pleased at the development of the characters in this series, particularly that of Thomas Jefferson.
Quite obviously, he is the most cerebral of the original six or seven important figures.............inventor, botanist, agronomist, author, statesman and philosopher.
Also obvious is the high regard in which Jefferson was held by Adams, and the recognition that Jefferson's selection as VP held tremendous political capital for unification (the cementing of the north and south states)
Really, really high quality and worthwhile stuff to be had on HBO.
