- A_Summary_View_of_the_Rights_of_British_America abstract "A Summary View of the Rights of British America was a tract written by Thomas Jefferson in 1774, before the U.S. Declaration of Independence, in which he laid out for delegates to the First Continental Congress, a set of grievances against the King, especially against his (and Parliament's) response to the Boston Tea Party. Jefferson declares that the British Parliament did not have the right to govern the Thirteen Colonies. He argues that since all of the colonies were founded they were independent of British rule. Jefferson, in this work, held that allodial title, not feudal title, was held to American lands; thus the people did not owe fees and rents for that land to the British crown. The work was presented to and debated by the First Continental Congress. When this took place, Jefferson did not attend. Despite his attempts, the members of the house agreed to a more moderate decision than Jefferson's proposed concept. Despite not being able to completely convince Congress, friends of Jefferson printed the Summary in a pamphlet form. It was distributed throughout London, New York and Philadelphia. Research states that the document "helped establish Jefferson's reputation as a skillful, if radical, political writer."".
