Yes, she does have another book out, even worse and further "badmouthing" Thomas Jefferson with such statements on the first page dust cover page as: "Sarah Hemings, better known by her nickname Sally, who bore seven children by Jefferson over the course of their thirty-eight year liaison." WOW, Annette has found proof that this is true, HA, HA and hasn't told the world?? There are many statements in the book that attempt to tie "real Jefferson relatives" to the Hemings family, as though it were fact. Her AGENDA is showing and I suggest all concerned go to my review of this inaccurate and misleading book at www.amazon.com. This statement and many others is OUTRAGEOUS. You the public have been "CONNED" long enough from many sources for various reasons, regarding this topic. Are we really asked to BELIEVE this claim, NO. I suggest readers call her on this type of action with a copy to Dan Jordan at Monticello. See www.tjheritage.org for the Scholars Commission Report and other clarifications. She even tries to "prop up" Madison Hemings inaccurate claim that he was named at Monticello by Dolley Madison....an absolute inaccurate statement. She then proceeds to have us believe that SHE knows WHAT HE MEANT........shades of Fawn Brodie. Enough of this political correctness and historical revisionism!

She will speak at the Library of Virginia on Saturday, Sept. 27th. I expect that her current book will be just as controversal as the first one.
