Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A History of the President´s Cabinet It was upon advice with the late Professor B. A. Hinsdale that the author selected The American Cabinet for the subject of an academic investigation. But the assistance that was to come from one who was both historical scholar and father was soon taken away. The prosecution of the work has been several times postponed. But the period of delay has been one of phenomenal activity among librarians and editors in the field of Americana. And the slow completion has perhaps been justified by the use of larger stores of critical biographies and private papers. The latter kind of material is specially important to the subject; and it is one that, at the best, lags a generation behind current events. The investigation has been carried on partly as a seminary study at Radcliffe College, and partly by independent research at various libraries. Acknowledgments for many privileges and personal courtesies are due to the gentlemen in authority at the Library of the New England Historic Genealogical Society, the Library of the Historical Society of Pennsylvania, Lenox Library, the Library of the University of Michigan, the Library of Harvard University, and the Division of Manuscripts of the Library of Congress. For information about the inside operations of the Executive, cordial thanks are paid to Mr. Gaillard Hunt, formerly of the Bureau of Citizenship in the Department of State, and to Hon. James Rudolph Garfield, ex-secretary of the Interior. Valuable academic assistance was received from Professor Andrew C. McLaughlin, both at the University of Michigan and the Carnegie Institution. The highest tribute of gratitude is reserved for Professor Albert Bushnell Hart, one of the most inspiring of instructors. It is through the generosity of the Hon. Wm. L. Clements, regent of the University of Michigan, that the publication of this work has been made possible.
