If it were written in Archimedes hand it might be worth something.

Probably written by a scribe...

There are other copies of books in Jefferson’s library.

What is more important..The contents of their thoughts on the paper they are written on.

I can read Plato’s Republic on line...

I also have more non fiction in my library than Jefferson ..
