A waste
I like MobileReference, so I was surprised to find that this had only a small portion of Jefferson's writings, and not very well linked. I wish I could delete it from my Kindle account.

Be aware of what you're buying
[NOTE: This review pertains to "The Writings of Thomas Jefferson ..." published by MobileReference, ASIN: B001OZ7ZMG.] This is an odd publication. Contrary to what its title implies, and unlike other Mobile Reference collections I've purchased, it is not a complete collection. Nor is it a "greatest hits" collection. Rather, it's Jefferson's letters written in the mid-1780s, plus two biographical essays. Thus, while the title doesn't make this clear, it appears to be the digitized version of *one* volume of Jefferson's collected works. (The size of the file would also suggest that we're dealing with something less than the complete works here.)

As for ease of use, there are no links to aid navigation within the letters. On the plus side, the price is right.
