Thomas Jefferson had a mistress for 38 years whom he loved and lived with until he died—the beautiful and elusive Sally Hemings. But it was not simply that Jefferson had a mistress that provoked such a scandal in both his time and ours. It was that Sally Hemings was a quadroon slave and that Jefferson fathered a slave family whose descendants are alive today. In this moving novel, originally published in 1979 and having sold over two million copies worldwide, Barbara Chase-Riboud re-creates one of America’s most powerful love stories, based on the documents and evidence of the day, and gives us a poignant, tragic, and unforgettable meditation on the history of race and sex in America.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis is a rare find!

Larke, the girl Brandun will marry, soon joins him, and all seems well and full of promise. But then a message comes, that a prisoner has escaped. And that prisoner is Lord Bardaric. In this sequel to The Temple of Wisdom, Brandun pursues his old nemesis, one who had nearly overpowered him with sorcery three years before. He and Kempe set out on a journey, back to the Jahaziel Mountains, to find Lord Bardaric before he can make another attempt at taking the throne. Along the way they are joined by Lufu, who has a trauma of her own. Her sister lies dying, despite all Lufu's attempts at healing, and she feels that her only hope is to travel to the mountains with the princes to seek the legendary Balm of Gilead, with its amazing healing properties. But Lufu is not the only one who wants this remarkable balm. Lord Bardaric and his son, Garwine, seek it for their own purposes. Through portals between this world and the next, from harsh winter into the unseasonable warmth in the Jahaziel Mountains, from glorious times of comfort to agonizing states of fear and doubt, Brandun, Kempe, and Lufu travel and search, each on their own journey of the body, and of the spirit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis is a rare find.
