The condor's head [text(large print)] : an American romance
Mount, Ferdinand, 1939-2008
Large Print
'The Condor's Head' is by turns tense and erotic, incredibly funny and unbearably sad. It includes the real-life letters of William Short, the Duchess de La Rochefoucauld, known as Rosalie, and Thomas Jefferson, some never published before. It also accidentally reveals the truth about the Third President and Sally Hemings.
