Washington in Germantown: Being an Account of the Various Visits of the Commander-In-Chief and First President to Germantown, Pennsylvania (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Washington in Germantown: Being an Account of the Various Visits of the Commander-in-Chief and First President to Germantown, Pennsylvania

The following chapters are largely filled with copies of letters from and to Washington and the various mem bers of his cabinet. They have mainly been selected andcopied from the archives of the Library of Congress, and many of them are here in print for the first time. It should be stated, however, that the words heretofore unpublished mean that the letters do not appear in any standard collection of the writings of the authors. It would of course be impossible to say with any degree of assurance that every letter so designated was absa lutely free, either in the original or a copy, from the leady smudge of the typesetter's thumb.
