There are plenty of good presentations on Thomas Jefferson. You will also find them as part of other presentations on other key founding fathers.
This presentation however is unique in that it focuses on Thomas Jefferson and how he lived. We get to rebuild Monticello together several times. We get an in-depth vision of the Hemmings slave family including Sally Hemmings. We see the conflict between Jefferson and Adams from Jefferson's side. There are references to the Louisiana purchase and what this meant to Jefferson. There is a particular focus on many of his paradoxes including slavery.
You may want to watch this after watching "Thomas Jefferson: a film by Ken Burns." Where Ken Burns thinks that Jefferson in a sense was frivolous and is constantly changing of Monticello, this documentary sees it as part of his dynamic nature and compares it to the constant changing of the early government.
