First published in 1959, The Autobiography of James Monroe collects
the compelling fragments of Monroe's unfinished autobiography,
written after his retirement from the presidency. The memoirs trace
his boyhood, education, and experiences during his long service as
a public servant before becoming president. Monroe vividly recalls
his military experience in the Revolution, his law studies at the
College of William and Mary, and his service as aide to
GovernorThomas Jefferson of Virginia. From the early days of his
political career, Monroe writes with passion about his opposition
to slavery and his support for the Westernfarmer. He discusses his
controversial first mission to France as a young and inexperienced
minister to a country in the throes of a revolution, as well as
subsequent missions in which he served as the key negotiator with
France for the purchase of the Louisiana Territory. Originally
edited by Stuart Gerry Brown, this new edition includes an
introduction by historian and documentary editor William Ferraro.
Ferraro considers the lasting influence of Brown's edition on
Monroe scholarship and surveys themost recent research, detailing
the ways this founding father's legacy continues to unfold.
