Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Biographical Sketches State Officers Members of the Legislature: State of New York, in 1862 and ´63 This is a combination of two volumes of a series which the author commenced publishing, annually, in 1858. The object of the work is to give impartial, truthful, and condensed biographical sketches of the Governor, Lieutenant-Governor, State Officers, and Members of both branches of the Legislature - an object which has thus far been successfully carried out. After the publication of the fourth volume in 1861, owing to a want of proper time to continue the enterprise, the author reluctantly concluded to abandon it. Dear Sir - Having understood that you do not design writing the Biographical sketches of the Members of this, as you did those of the last and the three preceding Legislatures, we feel authorized in appealing to you not to abandon an enterprise which you have so ably and impartially begun. As a book of reference, aside from its interest in various other respects, the four volumes already issued by yon have been found to possess invaluable interest, and we find that a discontinuance of the work would be universally regarded as a very serious loss to the political history of the State. We earnestly beg you, therefore, to reconsider your determination in the premises, and again resume the work. Should your desire to abandon it arise from any lack of time in its preparation, as intimated in the preface to your last volume, we would suggest the idea of your not issuing it until after the adjournment of the Legislature.
