About this book
In 1955, Columbia University and its University Press created a project to collect, edit, and publish the written records of the life of Alexander Hamilton, America's first Treasury secretary and one of the most important architects of the new nation. The project was completed with publication of its last volume in 1987.
The methodology of The Papers of Alexander Hamilton followed closely the model of the pioneering Thomas Jefferson series at Princeton. It includes both letters written and received by Hamilton, as well as his famous Treasury reports, contributions to The Federalist Papers, and other writings. The project's goal was accurate documentary texts with editorial notes that provided historical context for the user's convenience. (founders.archives.gov)
