Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Alexander Hamilton, Vol. 1 After the lapse of many years, I was requested to undertake this work; but a deep conviction of my incapacity, the want of the necessary prepar atory studies, and a distrust of the natural bias of my feelings, prompted me to decline it.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Alexander Hamilton, Vol. 1 of 2 IT is now many years ago that I first conceived the purpose of writing a Life of Alexander Hamil ton. The undertaking was repeatedly postponed with the intention of awaiting some period of lei sure; but as from year to year the prospect of that period seemed to recede rather than to approach I at last despaired of its ever arriving, and some four years ago entered upon my task without farther delay, and have since prosecuted it in such intervals as I could snatch from professional occupation. Doubtless the work could have been much better done by some student of American history who could have devoted his unbroken days to the topic, and made it the sole object of his reading and reflection. But as none such has appeared in nearly three quarters of a century, I have ventured to make my effort. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

As the history of the United States has been investigated and developed, Hamil ton has loomed ever larger upon the receding horizon of the days when that history began. His com manding figure has grown ever more luminous and more Vital as the years have passed by, and the Change is marked even in the eighteen which have elapsed since this edition was first published. He has been the subject of many biographies and in these later days has become the hero of fiction, which has discovered the romantic Side of his career, and has made his name and deeds familiar to many to whom history is only a task.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life and Times of Alexander Hamilton The want of a complete and satisfactory yet suc cinct and popular life of Alexander Hamilton, has long been felt by the reading public; and when we remember the very eminent position which he occu pies in American history, it is somewhat singular that no attempt has been made to execute such a work. The Memoir published by his son, John C. Hamilton, is excellent as far as it goes; although it is not only unfinished, but is also too cumbersome and diffuse for the popular reader. The small work of Dr. Renwick, though well adapted to the purpose for which it was written, was necessarily very super ficial and incomplete. I am not aware that any other reliable Memoir of Hamilton is i8. Existence. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life and Epoch of Alexander Hamilton: A Historical Study The demand for a second edition of this volume follows so soon the publication of the first edition, that little time has been allowed for the careful revision which I should have wished to perform. It will be noticed, perhaps, that I have corrected the text in many instances; and changed some phrases which attracted attention rather by their novelty than, I trust, by any inaccuracy of speech. A few notes have been added, and the Index increased. When one writes upon a subject concerning which intelligent persons are free to form different, if not opposite, opinions, it is well that he should endeavor not only to be clearly understood, but to be equally careful that he be not misunderstood.

It is as a var of Opinion - as the beginning of that great experiment in modern times, whether men are capable of self-government - that it assumes its immeasurable importance. A new World is seen rising into view - a World of Hope; and as the great lights that shone upon its morning path of advancing glory appear, the grateful inquiry is - Whose were those superior minds that, amid the darkness of a chaotic confederacy, combined the elements of Social order, and formed them into a vast majestic Empire?

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Alexander Hamilton By reason of these facts, the life of Hamilton was sure to be one of the most important vol umes of this series; and, since so much careful writing had been already done concerning him, the selection of his biographer demanded more than ordinary consideration. No one in the country had at that time made a more thorough study of Federalism than Mr. Lodge had done. His ancestor, George Cabot, had been one of the chiefs of the Federalist party in its strong hold of New England, and had been the in timate friend of Hamilton; and the testimony of the intimacy still lives upon Mr. Lodge's library wall in the shape of Trumbull's portrait of Hamilton, a present to George Cabot as a near and dear friend. Knowing well that, if Mr. Lodge was very naturally inclined to make a hero of Hamilton, he at least practiced a strictly intelligent and reasonable worship, I.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Conqueror, Vol. 1 of 2: Being the True and Romantic Story of Alexander Hamilton It was my original intention to write a biography of Alexander Hamilton in a more flexible manner than is customary with that method of reintroducing the dead to the living, but without impinging upon the territory of fiction. But after a visit to the British and Danish West Indies in search of the truth regarding his birth and ancestry, and after a wider acquaintance with the generally romantic character of his life, to say nothing of the personality of this most endearing and extraordinary of all our public men, the instinct of the novelist proved too strong; I no sooner had pen in hand than I found myself working in the familiar medium, although preserving the historical sequence. But, after all, what is a character novel but a dramatised biography? We strive to make our creations as real to the world as they are to us. Why, then, not throw the graces of fiction over the sharp hard facts that historians have laboriously gathered? At all events, this infinitely various story of Hamilton appealed too strongly to my imagination to be frowned aside, so here, for better or worse, is the result. Nevertheless, and although the method may cause the book to read like fiction, I am conscientious in asserting that almost every important incident here related of his American career is founded on documentary or published facts or upon family tradition; the few that are not have their roots among the probabilities, and suggested themselves.
