Book Description
Excerpt from An Address in Commemoration of Alexander Dallas Bache: Delivered August 6, 1868, Before the American Association for the Advancement of Science Beside all these, there is yet another reason for distrust. His influence extended through so large a sphere that it is difficult for us fully to comprehend it now. The more we examine the tokens of its action, the more do we become impressed with its extraordinary range. I know of no department of physical or natural science which has not been stimulated or fostered through his means. The legislative and executive departments of the nation knew his power through many years, and relied upon it in matters far beyond the range of his ordinary pursuits. Both the army and nay felt, and have often acknowledged their obligations to him. The progress of education, the development of scientific research, the extent of scientific discovery, the growth of the arts, and the spread of commerce, have all been greater in America because he has lived. Such a man was our beloved and honored Bag he. To hesitate, when summoned to put into words our common tribute, were unworthy of his friend or of his pupil. You will all feel the inadequacy of the offering, and the futility of attempting to compress into the utterance of an hour or two such records and such results. Many of you have already brought him a better tribute, - that of years of fruitful labor, prompted and encouraged by himself, or of a change in the aims and pursuits of a lifetime, induced by his wise and kindly counsel. Alexander Dallas Bag he was born in Philadelphia on the 19th day of July, 1806. If intellectual and moral eminence might be inferred from an honorable lineage, which, unhappily, is not always the case, it certainly would have been anticipated for him. His father was the son of Richard Bache and Sarah Franklin; the former. President of the Republican Society of Philadelphia at the outbreak of the American Revolution, and Postmaster General of the United States from 1776 to 1782; the latter, the only child of Benjamin Franklin and his wife Deborah (Read), and herself eminent as one of the heroines of the war of independence.

Book Description
Alexander Dallas Bache was the key leader of antebellum American scientists. Presuming his profession to be a herald of an integrated U.S. nation-state, Bache guided organizations such as the United States Coast Survey, then the country's largest scientific enterprise. In this analytical biography, Axel Jansen explains Bache's efforts to build and shape public institutions as a national foundation for a universalistic culture—efforts that culminated during the Civil War when Bache helped found the National Academy of Sciences as a symbol for the continued viability of an American nation.
