Excerpt from The Life and Epoch of Alexander Hamilton: A Historical Study
The demand for a second edition of this volume follows so soon the publication of the first edition, that little time has been allowed for the careful revision which I should have wished to perform. It will be noticed, perhaps, that I have corrected the text in many instances; and changed some phrases which attracted attention rather by their novelty than, I trust, by any inaccuracy of speech. A few notes have been added, and the Index increased.
When one writes upon a subject concerning which intelligent persons are free to form different, if not opposite, opinions, it is well that he should endeavor not only to be clearly understood, but to be equally careful that he be not misunderstood.
