past many people hive the idea that the ureal american president statesman and thinker thomas jefferson was unfriendly to great britain this view seem to liave been arrived al because thomas jefferson took b trong stand before the war of in dependence in resenltog those british liws and regulations which adversely i fleeted the american colonists co lonial resentments finally culminated ii the war of independence and in hit laying down of the famous de inrntlon of principles as embodied in hi american declaration of inde ixndence or which thomas jefferson was uie author many persons are quite
