An essay on American union. The author admits that no adequate life of Hamilton had yet been written. Hamilton's achievements have been chronicled, praised and condemned, but in the case of such a character, it is impossible to rest content with an account of his public deeds. Hamilton awaits a true interpreter, and it is hardly necessary to say that the present volume does not aim at supplying the deficiency.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
