Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Correspondence of the American Revolution, Vol. 1: Being Letters of Eminent Men to George Washington, From the Time of His Taking Command of the Army to the End of His Presidency While I was employed in preparing "Washington´s Writings" for the press, I made a selection from letters written to him, and copies were taken from the autographs. It was then my intention to publish the letters thus selected, as a sequel to that work, but various causes have intervened to delay the publication till the present time. In making the selection from several thousand letters, it was not possible to adopt any precise rule, but it was the aim to choose such as would enlarge the reader´s knowledge of the events, characters, and opinions of the period which they embrace. All the letters are here printed entire. Having been written by various hands, and on different subjects, they are not, in any instance, repetitions of each other; and hence there was no occasion to omit any parts of them on this account, as in the case of Washington´s own letters; nor was there the same reason for omissions to save space, in order to secure more valuable materials, and exhibit a continuous chain of events.
