  • Writer of Federalist Papers - Alexander Hamilton
    Writer of Federalist Papers - Alexander Hamilton John Trumbull painted a portrait of Alexander Hamilton in 1792. This image depicts that painting. Among his many other jobs, Hamilton was a soldier. The Center of Military History, for the United States Army, features a story about Hamilton's military background. This excerpt is from Soldier-Statesmen of the Constitution (a 1987 work by Robert K. Wright, Jr. and Morris J. MacGregor, Jr.), at pages 94-96: Alexander Hamilton, who represented New York at the Constitutional Convention, was a brilliant political theorist and a leading advocate of centralized government. As an immigrant, Hamilton was able to transcend loyalty to any single state or region and think in terms of nationhood. He combined a natural affinity for aristocratic values with a generally pessimistic view of human nature and concluded that successful government must be strong and must win the support of men of property and social standing. Hamilton was among the most intellectually gifted of the Founding Fathers, rivaling in ability his arch foe, Thomas Jefferson, but he lacked practical political experience and failed to win support for many of his most cherished ideas. A blunt, practical man, he never understood the role that idealists like Jefferson played in shaping society. Ironically, his major contributions to the political life of the nation occurred only when his specific policies were adopted and carried forward by others with broader vision. Hamilton was a master of financial planning and central organization. Many of his ideas about government matured during a youth spent in the uniform of the Continental Army.

  • “Opening a Door to Their Emancipation” Alexander Hamilton and Slavery
    “OPENING A DOOR TO THEIR EMANCIPATION” ALEXANDER HAMILTON AND SLAVERY AN ESSAY TO ADDRESS RECENT ALLEGATIONS AGAINST ALEXANDER HAMILTON AND HIS HISTORY WITH SLAVERY By Philo Hamilton Michael E. Newton, secondary author Published November 2020. Philo Hamilton: Twitter @PhiloHamilton Michael E. Newton: [email protected] “OPENING A DOOR TO THEIR EMANCIPATION” ALEXANDER HAMILTON AND SLAVERY By Philo Hamilton Michael E. Newton, secondary author INTRODUCTION With the opening of the Hamilton musical on Broadway in New York City in 2015, interest in the life of Alexander Hamilton has soared. Since its debut, millions have seen the show at the theater and on television. Not only has Hamilton’s popularity grown, but his wife Eliza and two of her sisters, Angelica and Peggy, collectively known as the “Schuyler Sisters,” have also gar- nered abundant attention. This attention has not been entirely positive. Many dispute the assertion by biographer Ron Chernow that Hamilton was an abolitionist. Indeed, Hamilton never claimed to be an abolitionist. In fact, the term abolitionist was rarely used in the 18th century. One of the most surprising critics of Hamilton on the topic of slavery has been the Schuyler Mansion in Albany, New York. They have for the last hundred years served as a public gathering place to present the home, family, and patriotic record of Philip Schuyler, Alexander Hamilton’s father-in-law. The musical tripled at- tendance at their location, and yet they recently published a negatively biased and error-filled essay about Alexander Hamilton and slavery. The claims made in that essay, entitled “As Odious and Immoral A Thing”: Alexander Ham- ilton’s Hidden History as an Enslaver and authored by Jesse Serfilippi, should be read with skep- ticism and examined objectively prior to drawing conclusions.

  • George Washington's Development As an Espionae
    37, V81 GEORGE WASHINGTON'S DEVELOPMENT AS AN ESPIONAGE CHIEF THESIS Presented to the Graduate Council of the University of North Texas in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE By David Ritchey, B.A. Denton, Texas May, 1993 Ritchey, David, George Washington's Development as an Espionae Chief. Master of Science (History), May, 1993, 97pp., bibliography, 83 titles. The American Revolution was a war of movement over great distances. Timely intelligence regarding the strength and location of the enemy was vital to the commanders on both sides. Washington gained his early experience in intelligence gathering in the wilderness during the French and Indian War. By the end of the American Revolution, Washington had become a skilled manager of intelligence. He sent agents behind enemy lines, recruited tory intelligence sources, questioned travelers for information, and initiated numerous espionage missions. Many heroic patriots gathered the intelligence that helped win the War for Independence. Their duties required many of them to pose as one of the enemy, and often incur the hatred of friends and neighbors. Some gave their lives in helping to establish the new American nation. It is possible that without Washington's intelligence service, American independence might not have been won. TABLE OF CONTENTS Chapter Page 1. ESPIONAGE IN THE WILDERNESS .... ............... 1 2.

INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy.

PREFACE. Without waiting for the completion of the First Series of the New Jersey Archives, it was concluded some years ago to begin the publication of a Second Series, to extend through the Revolutionary period, and to include extracts from American newspapers and several volumes of un- published manuscript material.
