Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Founding of Paterson as the Intended Manufacturing Metropolis of the United States
The investigations by Hamilton led to a practical result, upon which none of his biographers have touched, although it illustrates in a singular degree the great Financial Secre tary's ability to handle practical questions quite as well as to write brilliantly upon political and economic problems. Indeed, it is one of the most interesting episodes in his career. To us of New Jersey it has, moreover, a peculiar local interest.
