Martin Van Buren's Calumnies Repudiated: Hamilton's Conduct As Secretary Of The Treasury Vindicated is a book written by James Alexander Hamilton in 1870. The book is a defense of Alexander Hamilton's tenure as the first Secretary of the Treasury of the United States. It was written in response to the attacks made by Martin Van Buren, who was a political opponent of Hamilton and had accused him of financial mismanagement during his time in office. The book is divided into two parts. The first part provides a detailed account of Hamilton's achievements as Secretary of the Treasury, including his role in establishing a national bank, creating a sound financial system, and strengthening the economy. The second part of the book is a rebuttal of Van Buren's criticisms of Hamilton's policies. Hamilton argues that Van Buren's attacks were unfounded and based on political motivations rather than a genuine concern for the nation's financial well-being. Overall, Martin Van Buren's Calumnies Repudiated: Hamilton's Conduct As Secretary Of The Treasury Vindicated is an important historical document that sheds light on the political and economic landscape of the early United States. It provides a valuable perspective on the achievements and challenges faced by one of the most influential figures in American history, Alexander Hamilton.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
