In this second instalment of previously unpublished papers of James Monroe, readers can learn about the humble beginnings of the fifth president of the U.S.A. before he became a politician, and about his rising interest in the government. Over 500 documents are included in this volume, including letters, drafts of speeches, and newspaper articles. The volume examines material from 1776-1794, documenting James Monroe's time spent in the Continental Army, in state and national governments, and his time spent as an attorney, while also revealing aspects about his personal life. These rarely-seen documents provide great insights into his public and private life, and include the letters he wrote from the battlefield to George Washington; his correspondence with Thomas Jefferson and Patrick Henry; a letter Monroe wrote to his wife - the only letter he did not destroy after her death. This extraordinary collection is ideal for undergraduate students as well as scholars interested in learning more about James Monroe's personal life. Complete with a chronology, genealogy, and index, this volume is essential in any library.
