  abstract: "This volume contains the results of my grandfather's best thought upon public questions throughout his life. The first essay was written before he reached his fortieth year, when his mind was fully matured and in the first vigor of its working power.

The Financial articles, published at the close of the war, were issued in London. Some of them were translated into Dutch and published in Amsterdam, where they did much toward inspiring confidence in our resources. The clearness and keenness of my grandfather's vision made the dangers which menaced our country and our institutions very real to him and drew from him these cogent arguments, these earnest protests, and these burning appeals. "If by the blessing of Heaven, " he says, "there be aught of power within me, either for warning or for resistance, the will to exert it shall not be wanting"--Preface. (PsycINFO Database…
