The Portraits are copied from the original pain
tlngs. The plans sketches, and other engrayIngs,
have been compiled from the best drawings, as
well English and French as American. Special
ald was derived from a series OF manuscript draw
ings IN the possession Of General La Fayette,
which are executed with scientific accuracy and
beauty.
The well known ability of the author, the
abundant means which he possessed viz.-More
than rwo HUNDRED FOLIO VOLUMES OF oRGGI-
NAL manuscripts, purchased by. Congress; ten
years researches in the public offices in London,
Paris, Washington, and in all the States which
formed the confederacy during the Revolution;
as well as the access he has gained to valuable
private papers in different parts OF the country
have brought into his hands a mass Of materials,
origina! and important in their character, which,
we trust, will be found to have contributed essen
tial aid in enabling him to execute with more ac-
curacy and completeness his main purpose, and
thus to have compensated in some degree for the
time and labor they have cost. Its publication
has not only involved extended and laborious re-
search on the part Of the editor, but great pecu-
mary responsibility on the part of the publishers.
The price affixed to this work, is less when the
execution is considered, than that of any other
publication in Europe or America. The invest
rncnt and expenditures connected with this under
taking are much greater than usually attend such
publications; and it will be apparent that the
