Excerpt: ... among the spurs of the Blue Ridge, and in this way accounts for his habits of hardihood in after life. Mr. Jefferson was doubtless ignorant of the removal of Mrs. Marks and her Lewis children to Georgia, and wholly ignorant of the early life of Meriwether Lewis, who had spent all of his coon-hunting days in Georgia, where Indians were the only game that the white man could afford to hunt, or at school, where coons were not to be found. It is more than probable that Meriwether Lewis was never on a coon hunt in his life. It is true that he was inured to hardships and accustomed to danger in his boyhood, and that this had much to do with shaping his character in after life; but it is to the Indian, and not to the coon and opossum, that we must look for the explanation of this fact . After the death of Colonel Marks, "Aunt Marks" returned to Locust Hill, Albemarle county, Virginia, and shortly after her return Meriwether Lewis entered the United States army. He volunteered in 1794, with the troops called out to suppress the whiskey rebellion, and in 1795 entered the regular army. He was promoted to the rank of Captain in 1800, and in 1801, when Mr. Jefferson was inaugurated president, he became his private secretary, and in 1803, upon the recommendation of the President was appointed to take command of the exploring expedition, which has become a part of our country's history as the expedition of "Lewis and Clark." The scope of this work will not admit of historical or biographical reference, except of the briefest character, and therefore this notice of Meriwether Lewis will be closed with a quotation from instructions which accompanies his appointment, and which will show the purport and scope of the undertaking, together with extracts...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The final volume of The Papers of Jefferson Davis follows the former president of the Confederacy through the completion of his two monumental works on the history of the Confederate States of America. In the first, The Rise and Fall of the Confederate Government (1881), Davis sought to recast the Confederacy as a just and moral nation that was constitutionally correct in standing up for its rights. Himself the subject of heated debates about why the Confederacy lost, Davis also used the book to castigate Confederate government and military officials who he believed had failed the cause. Later, A Short History of the Confederate States (1890) attempted to burnish the image of the former Confederacy and to refute accusations of intentional mistreatment of Union prisoners. While completing these books, Davis attended and spoke at numerous Confederate memorial services and monument dedications, all the while waging a bitter feud with two of his former top generals-Joseph E. Johnston and P. G. T. Beauregard-over the reasons for the fall of the Confederacy. In late 1889, having returned to New Orleans from a trip to his plantation, Brierfield, Davis succumbed to pneumonia. His funeral procession attracted an estimated 150,000 mourners, a testament to the lasting popularity of the Confederacy's only president. In volume 14 of The Papers of Jefferson Davis, the editors have drawn from over one hundred manuscript repositories and private collections, in addition to numerous published sources, to offer a compelling portrait of Davis over the last decade of his life.
