4.9/5 (21453 ratings)

Description:BECAUSE THE FEDERALISTS, in ideals and in action, formed our original philosophy of public administration, here is a book of special significance for us today. This is an exceedingly interesting history of the beginnings of administrative government under George Washington, Alexander Hamilton, Timothy Pickering, and other Federalist leaders. It is an intimate picture, drawn from original sources, of the day-to-day problems that perplexed officials; an analysis of the great permanent problems of management and of congressional relations; of the hard thinking done by government officials in the days when precedents were in the making.Hamilton-Jefferson FeudRealizing the importance of personality in the early American administration the author includes character sketches of Washington, Hamilton, and many lesser figures as administrators. He explores too the administrative aspect of the great feud between Hamilton and Jefferson, hitherto unrecorded; together with the consequences of the disastrous contest between Hamilton and Adams. The feud between Federalist ideals and those which became ascendant in Thomas Jefferson is especially fascinating.Basic SourcesThe author has made this interesting study almost exclusively from basic sources, such as collected letters and papers, public reports, memoranda, the decisions of federal courts, Studies at Large, Annals of Congress, American State Papers, etc. Five helpful tables are included.War: "A Dificult and Unpopular Department"; The Attorney General - "A Sort of Mongrel"; "Fitness of Character" - Public Service Ideals; Notes on Prestige; Administrative Housekeeping; The Rule of Parsimony - these are only a few of the down-to-earth chapters on subjects which will interest us today.Significantly, the Federalist administration was perhaps in advance of its time in moral standards, and well abreast in actual achievement - in spite of great physical handicaps in communications.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
