No single document captures the American spirit better than the Declaration of Independence. John Buxton invites you to witness history as writer Thomas Jefferson reviews his first draft with the committee of Franklin, Adams, Sherman and Livingston, and they share with him their immediate reaction. They are shown here in Jefferson’s rented room in the Graff House (located at Seventh and Market in Philadelphia), where his guiding vision was instrumental in developing the cornerstone of our government. Standing (left to right) are Robert Livingston (NY), Roger Sherman (CT), Thomas Jefferson (VA), and John Adams (MA), with Benjamin Franklin (PA) seated at the table.
