George Washington had Mount Vernon. Thomas Jefferson had Monticello. The homes of the nation's founding fathers attract visitors seeking to learn more about them and their contributions to the United States. James Madison's Montpelier will soon be restored so that it, too, can tell the story of Madison's part in the American Revolution. As VOA's Susan Logue reports, leaders of the restoration say it will serve as the national monument to an important figure in American history.
