Concerns Jefferson's trip in Germany and his planned route back to Paris through the wine country of Hocheim, Rudesheim, and Johannesberg; travels with Baron von Geismar; mentions he met in Hanau the "officers who had been stationed in Albermarle while in captivity"; praises as the "most wonderful in nature" the German postilions; muses that the area surrounding Frankfurt on the Main is the origin of many Americans and "whatever is not English among us"; compares the countryside to Maryland and Pennsylvania; alludes to his having "taken some measures too for realizing a project which I have wished to execute for 20 years past without knowing how to go about it" but says he will discuss it further with William Short when he arrives in Paris. |
