Biography of the distinguished American authority on international law, representative to various foreign powers, and lifelong promoter of good will among nations.
Daniel Webster captured the hearts and imagination of the American people of the first half of the nineteenth century. This bibliography on Webster brings together for the first time a comprehensive guide to the vast amount of literature written by and about this extraordinary man who dwarfed most of his contemporaries. This bibliography also provides references to materials on slavery, the tariff, banking, Indian affairs, legal and constitutional development, international affairs, western expansion, and economic and political developments in general. This bibliography is divided into fifteen sections and covers every aspect of Webster's distinguished career. Sections I and II deal primarily with Webster's writings and with those of his contemporaries. Sections III through X cover the literature dealing with his family background; childhood and education, his long service in the United States House of Representatives and in the Senate, his two stints as secretary of state, and his career in law. Section X provides guidance in locating materials relating to his associates. Finally, Sections XI through XV provide coverage of his personal life, his death, historiographical materials, and iconography.
Excerpt from Henry Wheaton, an Appreciation: Being the Address Delivered Before the Alumni of Brown University on the Occasion of the One Hundredth Anniversary of His Graduation, June Seventeen, 1402 At Poitiers he made good use of his time, for in addition to acquiring a respectable conversational acquaintance with the language he made a translation of the new French Code, and was only prevented fi'om publishing it by the accidental destruction of the manuscript. At Paris he gives evidence of quick cuing powers of observation and growing knowledge of the world, in accounting for his difficulty in pro curing quarters in a respectable' private family by the fact, equally true to-day, that those who come to Paris to spend a short time prefer to live in a hotel rather than in a private family where they must be obliged to conform to the rules there prevailing, and live in a more regular manner than most of the trav ellers who come to this capital wish to do.
