Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the Government of the United States He is aware that, notwithstanding the assistance rendered by friends in America, he must have fallen into not a few errors, and Without asking to be excused for these, he desires to plead in extenuation that the book has been written under the constant pressure of public duties as well as of other private work, and that the difficulty of obtaining in Europe correct information regarding the constitutions and laws of American States and the rules of party organizations is very great.
