Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from History of the Life and Times of James Madison, Vol. 3 It was the design of the author to complete this work - the employment and solace of his declining years - in a fourth volume; but death put an end to his labors, at Castle Hill, Virginia, on the 25th day of April, 1868. The present volume embraces all of his hitherto unpublished history that he had prepared for the press, and brings the narrative down to the close of General Washington´s administration. Others may do justice to the epoch of American history which he was not permitted to reach in his portrayal of Madison´s career; but it is not too much to say, that no living writer is so well qualified as he was, by intimate intercourse with Madison, and by special study, to treat adequately the constitutional and early political history of the country. In these pages, it is believed his countrymen will see reflected much of the experience, learning, ability, and eloquence which won for the author the highest distinction in the service of his native State, and, in a wider sphere, as Member of Congress, Senator of the United States, and Minister to France during two eventful periods of her revolutionary history. A general Index to the three volumes, prepared with skill and fidelity by Dr. John Appleton, cannot fail to add to the convenience and value of the work.
