His manifest precocity, indisputable genius, ardent ambition, and captivating charm earned him the admiration and respect of many prorninent Americans of his day and marriage to one of New York's most socially prominent and richest families. The distinguished public career that Hamilton craved above all else he swiftly achieved, but the popular acclaim he also sought eluded him, and the feverish pursuit of it led to the famous "interview at Weehawken," in which he was mortally wounded by Aaron Burr. In this, the boldest reinterpretive biography in eight decades, Professor Jacob E. Cooke skillfully unravels the tangled threads forming the complex personality that was Hamilton. Professor Cooke perceptively uncovers a pattern of rash and self~defeating behavior that recurred time and again during Hamilton's meteoric career and that contributed to the hostility he incurred both contemporaneously and posthumously. A hallmark of this biography of the most famous secretary of the Treasury is its objectivity. Professor Cooke refuses to side with either of the two most prominent political gladiators in this nation's history~Hamilton and his great antagonist, Thomas Jefferson. Studiedly impartial, Professor Cooke instead shows how bogus and exaggerated the stormy differences between these two premiere American statesmen often were. In the process, he sheds new light on the still controversial and perennially fascinating history of the early and formative years of our national history. The storm center of American politics from the beginning to the end of his career, Hamilton was a man of rare genius and is a person of enduring historical importance. This biography is an absorbing and intriguing account of his public accomplishments and personal misfortunes.

Hardcover. Condition: Fair. Volume XIII only. Water damage to bottom of pages, boards, and dustjacket. Frontispiece is a 1792 oil painting of Alexander Hamilton by John Trumbull. Original light blue cloth binding with gilt lettering on spine and front board. Dust-jacket split into two pieces at spine, and sustained water damage,… light foxing, scuffing. Some wear and fading to spine ends. Mesh is visible at inside hinge, both front and back. Some dirt on page edges. Interior is mostly unmarked, though pages are wrinkled and there is light water staining to fore-edge and the bottom of some pages. This is volume thirteen in a set of 27 that contain letters and documents written by Hamilton, letters to Hamilton, and documents that concern Hamilton but were not written by or to him. All documents are presented in chronological order. This volume, covering the last months of 1792 and early 1793, provides continued evidence of Hamilton's expert handling of the business of the Treasury Department. Among the book's documents are Hamilton's reports in response to the "Giles Resolutions," which were passed in the House in an attempt to discredit Hamilton's handling of the Treasury. Correspondence reveals the pressure put on the Treasury by American merchants and French diplomatic representatives as a result of strife in Santo Domingo. Other documents reveal Hamilton's part in the U.S. attempt to avert a war with the Indians on the northwestern frontier, and the government's problems with Spanish aid for Indian raids on the country's southern border. Hamilton's controversy with John F. Mercer is developed further in this volume, and political overtones appear in the Hamilton-Reynolds Affair, the first major sex scandal in American political history. Hardcover, acceptable condition. 620 pages, octavo. Dampstained, water damage. See our catalog for more volumes in this set.

This is volume twelve in a set of 27 that contain letters and documents written by Hamilton, letters to Hamilton, and documents that concern Hamilton but were not written by or to him. All documents are presented in chronological order. As Hamilton completes his third year as Secretary of the Treasury, his correspondence reflected administrative changes in Treasury, including the delegation of duties to the comptroller and commissioner of revenue. The sinking fund, payment of foreign debts, and negotiation of foreign loans occupied a major part of Hamilton's attention, as well as open resistance to excise, culminating in the Whiskey Insurrection of 1794. This volume also contains documents relating to Hamilton's life as a private citizen, including a search for a schoolmaster, acknowledgement of an honorary Harvard degree, and Hamilton's continuing interest in manufacturing. Finally, the correspondence in this volume shows the growing asperity in party politics, including disputed elections, and Hamilton's articles attacking Thomas Jefferson. Hardcover, acceptable condition. 677 pages, octavo. Dampstained, water damage. See our catalog for more volumes in this set.

Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. Gertrude Atherton was an American novelist who, in her day, was very popular with readers, and who had an good reputation among critics. She was born and died in California, and much of her literary output celebrated that state. The many reprints of this book, which i…s not in any manner a California story, go towards buttressing that reputation. "The Conqueror : A Dramatized Biography of Alexander Hamilton" by Gertrude Atherton, was originally published in 1902, and went through 35 printings to the edition of which this copy is representative : the 35th Printing, December 11, 1934. That's a fine record. In fact the book is still in print. The reasons are easy to see. The book is stated as being a dramatized account of Hamilton's life, but Atherton's interest, her labor in collecting historical evidence, her understanding of American history, and her ability to write an exciting, absorbing, and fully satisfyingly enriching story, still speak to the modern reader. Just consider the amazing breadth of Hamilton's friendships and acquaintances (and enemies) -- he was truly a man who strode across the boards of American public fame and recognition. He was the "Conqueror" that Atherton portrays him to have been. This is one of the best American historical novels ever written. TITLE : The Conqueror : A Dramatized Biography of Alexander Hamilton AUTHOR : Gertrude Atherton (Gertrude Franklin Horn Atherton, 1857 - 1948) IMPRINT : Frederick A. Stokes PLACE : New York DATE : (December 11, 1934) EDITION : 35th Printing Trade hardcover; Contains a frontispiece portrait with tissue guard; has 9 pages of notes; xii + 536 pages; approx. 5" x 7 1/2"; brown cloth-covered boards with gilt lettering on spine and front board; front board has paper paste-down portrait illustration of Hamilton; decorated end-papers printed in pale orange on white. CONDITION -- VERY GOOD -- This is a previously owned book which remains clean and attractive, with the following imperfections and particulars noted: EXTERIOR : Spine extremities are compressed and display a touch of abrasion, with fraying just beginning to head; gilt lettering is bright; the picture on the front has a touch of rub, but displays brightly; board surfaces have mild rub; edge wear to boards is mild, consisting of mainly rub to bottom, and a bit of scattered nicking; text-block edges are clean and free of marking - the whole taken together displays nicely. BINDING : The paper over the top portion of the front hinge is split; no splitting to the rear end-paper hinge; the book has obviously been read and thus is not as tight as when issued, however no leaves are detached or loose, and the whole - while being a bit relaxed - remains solid enough. INTERIOR : The first few leaves were separated a bit carelessly upon first reading, and thus have ragged fore-edges, with partial loss of paper; the tissue guard for the frontispiece displays wrinkling and creasing, as well as toning; while there are a few small spots and small smudges, the text block as a whole is clean and free of marking. On the top edge of the front free end-paper is written in ink the dated signature of the original owner (James Hallen O'Leary / August 1936). DUST-JACKET — Sans.
