During the six months covered in this volume, Madison contended
with the failed negotiations between Spain and the United States to
settle disputed boundaries, and the failure to win French support;
Great Britain's refusal to respond to U.S. complaints of the
impressment of American seamen and violations of neutral trade;
reports from the territorial governors of Michigan, Orleans, and
Louisiana; detailed accounts of the June 1805 treaty negotiations
between the United States and Tripoli; and the arrival of the
Tunisian ambassador, Soliman Melimeni, in November 1805. Madison
spent three months of this period in Philadelphia, where he had
taken Dolley Madison to seek treatment for her ulcerated knee. Also
included is a lengthy correspondence between the Madisons, written
after James's return to Washington in October 1805. Access to
people, places, and events discussed in this volume is facilitated
by detailed annotation and a comprehensive index.
