摘要：
Tells the story of the Hemings family, whose close blood ties to the third president of America. This work traces the Hemingses from their origins in Virginia in the 1700s to the family's dispersal after Thomas Jefferson's death in 1826. It brings to life not only Sally Hemings and Thomas Jefferson but also their children and Hemings' siblings.
