The Life and Correspondence of Rufus King Volume 1 is a comprehensive collection of the letters, official and private, public documents, and speeches of Rufus King, a prominent American statesman and diplomat who lived from 1755 to 1827. This book covers King's life from his birth in Massachusetts to his early career as a lawyer and politician in New York, his service as a delegate to the Continental Congress, and his role as a negotiator and diplomat during the Revolutionary War and the early years of the United States. The book includes King's personal letters to family and friends, as well as his official correspondence with political leaders such as George Washington and John Adams. It also features King's speeches and public documents, including his famous speech on the abolition of slavery in the Continental Congress.
