About this Item

Fisher Ames was one of the most influential Federalist statemen of his day, his party's orator, a brilliant essayist, and perhaps the most accomplished man of letters among his contemporaries in public service. Active in public life from1787-1807, Fisher was a member of Congress for the eight years of Washington's presidency. And it was he who had the final decision on the form of the Constitution. This collection of his speeches and letters provide an insight into the impact of this man on the country. A man who is now mostly forgotten. 773 pages including index. (Runs from page 845 to 1,618, picking up where Volume I left off in pagination.) Minor shelf wear and a hint of a crease startingnear front upper corner. Lovely copy.
