Monticello, designed and built by Thomas Jefferson,
is one of the most perfect examples of architecture in
America. Begun in 1769, it was several years being built,
as most of the materials used were made on the prop-
erty—the timbers were hewn there, and the bricks and
even the nails and hardware were made there. Jefferson
was of an inventive turn of mind and his home contains
many evidences of this as several of the devices he con-
trived are in popular use today.
