Book excerpt: John Adams and Thomas Jefferson were good friends with very different personalities. But their differing views on how to run the newly created United States turned them into the worst of friends. They each became leaders of opposing political parties, and their rivalry followed them to the White House. Full of both history and humor, this is the story of two of America's most well-known presidents and how they learned to put their political differences aside for the sake of friendship.

This book was released on 2018-01-29 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Constitution of the United States Its Friends and Foes: Address Statesmen not in sympathy with this revolutionary program are retired to private life, while political adventurers, prating of reform, strut across the political stage, deriding the clauses of the Constitution, framed with so much care and prayer, and promising to modernize it to suit the clamor of the hour. The voice of history has sunk into a whisper, and hysteria rules in its stead. The situation presented is unprecedented. That it is big with bane to the Republic unless checked or circumvented is obvious. Its grav ity can hardly be exaggerated.

Download or read book The Federalist Papers written by Alexander Hamilton and published by Read Books Ltd. This book was released on 2018-08-20 with total page 455 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Classic Books Library presents this brand new edition of “The Federalist Papers”, a collection of separate essays and articles compiled in 1788 by Alexander Hamilton. Following the United States Declaration of Independence in 1776, the governing doctrines and policies of the States lacked cohesion. “The Federalist”, as it was previously known, was constructed by American statesman Alexander Hamilton, and was intended to catalyse the ratification of the United States Constitution. Hamilton recruited fellow statesmen James Madison Jr., and John Jay to write papers for the compendium, and the three are known as some of the Founding Fathers of the United States. Alexander Hamilton (c. 1755–1804) was an American lawyer, journalist and highly influential government official. He also served as a Senior Officer in the Army between 1799-1800 and founded the Federalist Party, the system that governed the nation’s finances. His contributions to the Constitution and leadership made a significant and lasting impact on the early development of the nation of the United States.
Download or read book Friends Divided written by Gordon S. Wood and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2017 with total page 530 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times Book Review Notable Book of 2017 A Wall Street Journal Best Book of 2017 From the great historian of the American Revolution, New York Times-bestselling and Pulitzer-winning Gordon Wood, comes a majestic dual biography of two of America's most enduringly fascinating figures, whose partnership helped birth a nation, and whose subsequent falling out did much to fix its course. Thomas Jefferson and John Adams could scarcely have come from more different worlds, or been more different in temperament. Jefferson, the optimist with enough faith in the innate goodness of his fellow man to be democracy's champion, was an aristocratic Southern slaveowner, while Adams, the overachiever from New England's rising middling classes, painfully aware he was no aristocrat, was a skeptic about popular rule and a defender of a more elitist view of government. They worked closely in the crucible of revolution, crafting the Declaration of Independence and leading, with Franklin, the diplomatic effort that brought France into the fight. But ultimately, their profound differences would lead to a fundamental crisis, in their friendship and in the nation writ large, as they became the figureheads of two entirely new forces, the first American political parties. It was a bitter breach, lasting through the presidential administrations of both men, and beyond. But late in life, something remarkable happened: these two men were nudged into reconciliation. What started as a grudging trickle of correspondence became a great flood, and a friendship was rekindled, over the course of hundreds of letters. In their final years they were the last surviving founding fathers and cherished their role in this mighty young republic as it approached the half century mark in 1826. At last, on the afternoon of July 4th, 50 years to the day after the signing of the Declaration, Adams let out a sigh and said, At least Jefferson still lives. He died soon thereafter. In fact, a few hours earlier on that same day, far to the south in his home in Monticello, Jefferson died as well. Arguably no relationship in this country's history carries as much freight as that of John Adams of Massachusetts and Thomas Jefferson of Virginia. Gordon Wood has more than done justice to these entwined lives and their meaning; he has written a magnificent new addition to America's collective story.

This book was released on 2016-12-27 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Constitution and Discipline for the American Yearly Meetings of Friends For a time the members called themselves The Friends of Truth. The distinguishing doctrines of Friends have from the beginning led them into special lines of service that have resulted in great good to mankind. Because they would not comply with unjust requirements they were imprisoned in great numbers in England until their quiet endurance of oppression aroused the con science of the nation, and this resulted in obtaining many of the blessings of civil and religious liberty which all now enjoy. They were the consistent and unyielding Opponents of human slavery when they stood almost alone in their opposition to it. They have opposed war as violating the principles of Christianity, as well as the precepts of its Founder, and as bring ing untold evils upon mankind, and they have always advocated peaceable methods of settling disputes between nations. They have steadily advocated jus tice toward the North American Indian, and have labored independently and as the representatives of government, for his civilization and christianization. They believe that oaths were forbidden by Christ, and they have obtained in all English-speaking countries the privilege of affirmation. They have advocated, and in many cases inaugurated, prison reform, which has greatly relieved the sufferings of convicts. They have been among the leaders in the rational and Chris tian treatment of the insane; and, in many other ways, have engaged in the service they felt laid upon them for the good of humanity. Friends came to America soon after the body arose in England. New England Yearly Meeting was established in 1671, or earlier; Baltimore in 1672.
