The Papers of James Monroe, Volume 7
Author: Daniel PrestonPublisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 1440857857
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 729
Book Description
The 605 documents presented in Volume 7 of The Papers of James Monroe date from April 1814, the midpoint of Monroe's term as secretary of state under President James Madison, to March 1817, just prior to his inauguration as president. Volume 7 opens in the midst of the War of 1812, documenting Monroe's role as military adviser to President Madison during an ill-fated defense of Washington in August 1814, his appointment as secretary of war in September 1814, and his return to the State Department in March 1815, when he began the work of normalizing relations with the European nations after the end of the Napoleonic wars. Relations with Great Britain remained uneasy, but Monroe reduced friction by negotiating the 1817 Rush-Bagot Treaty, which led to disarmament of the Great Lakes. Numerous documents detail the ill will between the United States and Spain caused by the war, disagreement over possession of Florida, and the revolutions in Spain's American colonies. The volume also addresses the presidential election of 1816. Monroe, in line with the accepted practice at the time, avoided any overt acts that would indicate he was seeking the office. Correspondence with friends and confidants and several campaign essays written by Monroe nevertheless reveal a strategy of a quiet campaign to garner support for his candidacy.
The Papers of Thomas Jefferson, Retirement Series, Volume 7
Author: Thomas JeffersonPublisher: Princeton University Press
ISBN: 1400838657
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 841
Book Description
The 526 documents printed in this volume run from 28 November 1813 to 30 September 1814. During this period Jefferson reviews the extant sources on the 1765 Stamp Act crisis to aid William Wirt, a Patrick Henry scholar; records his largely positive impressions of George Washington; and updates a reading list for law students that he had initially drawn up forty years earlier. In the spring of 1814 Jefferson becomes a trustee of the Albemarle Academy, the earliest direct ancestor of the University of Virginia. He is soon actively involved in planning for its establishment, helping to draft rules for governance of the academy's trustees and propose funding options, and he lays out an expansive vision for its future as an institution of higher learning. Jefferson also exchanges ideas on collegiate education with such respected scholars as Thomas Cooper and José Corrêa da Serra. Jefferson's wide-ranging correspondence includes a temperate response to a lengthy letter from Miles King urging the retired president to reflect on his personal religion, and a diplomatic but noncommittal reply to a proposal by Edward Coles that the author of the Declaration of Independence employ his prestige to help abolish slavery. Having learned of the British destruction late in August 1814 of the public buildings in Washington, Jefferson offers his massive book collection as a replacement for the Library of Congress. The nucleus for one of the world's great public libraries is formed early in 1815 when the nation purchases Jefferson's 6,707 volumes. Some images inside the book are unavailable due to digital copyright restrictions.

Is It Treason? or Not?
Author: Susan M. WendlerPublisher: Abbott Press
ISBN: 1458218910
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 66
Book Description
With hostilities between political parties deepening and wars becoming more complex, it can be a challenge understanding what constitutes treason under the United States Constitution. Even if an action shocks you down to your red-white-and-blue bones, it doesnt mean its really treason. It could be a lesser felony or not a crime at all. This book clarifies and simplifies what it means to commit a treasonable offense by examining what the Constitution states, what judges have decided, and how current events are shaping attitudes about treason. Excerpts from the Declaration of Independence, the U.S. Constitution, the Federalist Papers, the U.S. Code, Supreme Court Chief Justice John Marshalls famous Aaron Burr court opinion, and an examination of the case against abolitionist John Brown provide a deep understanding of the issue. Whether its people leaving the United States to fight with terrorists, multinational corporations siding with foreign governments on important issues, or politicians yielding some of the nations sovereign authority to international governing bodies, its becoming increasingly important to know Is it Treason? Or Not?
