Book Synopsis The Great Conspiracy by : Donald Barr Chidsey
Download or read book The Great Conspiracy written by Donald Barr Chidsey and published by . This book was released on 1967 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aaron Burr was one of the most astounding and perplexing men in American history. A man who had lost the Presidency of the United States to Thomas Jefferson by only one vote in the House of Representatives (the Electoral College vote had been even), and who had himself been Vice President, he nevertheless became notorious overnight by killing Alexander Hamilton in their famous New Jersey duel. But he went further, Burr, ever restless, ventured into the Midwest and West, engaging in "strange doings" that included secret meetings on Blennerhassett Island and efforts to raise a private militia. Was he really anxious to establish himself as Emperor of Mexico? What were the motives and the ambitions of this curious and powerful man? Donald Barr Chidsey, lauded for his many vivid on-the-scene histories, dramatically brings to life all the circumstances surrounding the duel with Hamilton; he takes us behind the scenes as Burr plots with Harman Blennerhassett, General James Wilkinson, and other leading figures of the day; he shows us Burr's trip south with his small "army" and the eventual capture and arraignment of the former Vice President. Then we see the great Virginia trial at which Burr was charged with conspiracy (a trial that included the great lawyer William Wirt and Chief Justice John Marshall, with Jefferson himself "in the wings"), and finally the last--and often pathetic--years, in Europe and New York, of this dynamic and fascinating man.--Jacket flap
Book Synopsis The Treason Trials of Aaron Burr by : Peter Charles Hoffer
Download or read book The Treason Trials of Aaron Burr written by Peter Charles Hoffer and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Aaron Burr was an enigma even in his own day. Founding Father and vice president, he engaged in a duel with Alexander Hamilton, resulting in a murder indictment that effectively ended his legal career. And when he turned his attention to entrepreneurial activities on the frontier he was suspected of empire building - and worse." "In the first book dedicated to this important case, Peter Charles Hoffer unveils a cast of characters ensnared by politics and law at the highest levels of government, including President Thomas Jefferson - one of Burr's bitterest enemies - and Chief Justice John Marshall, no fan of either Burr or Jefferson. Hoffer recounts how Jefferson's prosecutors argued that the mere act of discussing an "overt Act of War" - the constitution's definition of treason - was tantamount to committing the act. Marshall, however, ruled that without the overt act, no treasonable action had occurred and neither discussion nor conspiracy could be prosecuted. Subsequent attempts to convict Burr on violations of the Neutrality Act failed as well."--BOOK JACKET.

The Trial at Richmond. MARCH -5, 1807, surrounded by a guard of six men under Nicholas Perkins, who had been instrumental in his interception, Burr set out from Fort Stoddert on the journey of a thousand miles to Washington. Twenty-one days later the prisoner was lodged in the Eagle Tavern, Richmond, whither he had been directed by order of the Executive. The day following he wrote his daughter: "It seems that here the business is to be tried and concluded. I am to be surrendered to the civil authority to-morrow, when the question of bail is to be determined. In the meantime I remain at the Eagle Tavern." March 30th, in a small room of the Tavern, Burr came up for an examination before Chief-Justice Marshall, in whose district the alleged crime, or crimes, had been committed. George Hay, district-attorney for the United States, moved for a commitment on charges of misdemeanor and treason. Two days of argument followed; then the Chief-Justice delivered his opinion: "The fact to be proved in this case is an act of public notoriety. It must exist in the view of the world, or it cannot exist at all. The assembling of forces to levy war is a visible transaction, and numbers must witness it. It is, therefore, capable of proof; and when time to collect this proof has been given, it ought to be adduced, or suspicion becomes ground too weak to stand upon. . . . If in November or December last, a body of troops had been assembled on the Ohio, it is impossible to suppose that affidavits establishing the fact could not have been obtained by the last of March. . . . On the evidence furnished by this very transaction of the attachment felt by our Western for their Eastern brethren, we justly felicitate ourselves. How inconsistent with...
Book Synopsis The Treason Trial of Aaron Burr by : R. Kent Newmyer
Download or read book The Treason Trial of Aaron Burr written by R. Kent Newmyer and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2012-09-24 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Burr treason trial, one of the greatest criminal trials in American history, was significant for several reasons. The legal proceedings lasted seven months and featured some of the nation's best lawyers. It also pitted President Thomas Jefferson (who declared Burr guilty without the benefit of a trial and who masterminded the prosecution), Chief Justice John Marshall (who sat as a trial judge in the federal circuit court in Richmond) and former Vice President Aaron Burr (who was accused of planning to separate the western states from the Union) against each other. At issue, in addition to the life of Aaron Burr, were the rights of criminal defendants, the constitutional definition of treason and the meaning of separation of powers in the Constitution. Capturing the sheer drama of the long trial, Kent Newmyer's book sheds new light on the chaotic process by which lawyers, judges and politicians fashioned law for the new nation.
