Book Description

Excerpt from A Few of Hamilton's Letters: Including His Description of the Great West Indian Hurricane of 1772 Republic, but because it throws many side-lights on the workings of Hamilton's mind and character. In it, indeed, are to be found indications of every part of the immediate and future Hamilton, with the sole exception of that not inconsiderable spot which was more than responsive to the other sex. Those who would fill in the spaces which exist necessarily between the letters of this little collee tion, will find the missing links in the first, fifth, and sixth volumes of The Works of Alexander Hamilton, J. C. Hamilton edition. They are in every public library. Those so fortunate as to possess the Lodge edition are not in need of instructions. The letters to the Provincial Congress are to be found in the Journal of that body. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
