About this book
Moses Coit Tyler drew on printed sources and a large number of manuscripts for this biography of Patrick Henry, which belongs to the American Statesmen series. His preface contrasts it with William Wirt's Life, finished in 1817, and notes that Wirt relied heavily on remembered stories because so many records were then out of reach.
Among the new material Tyler names a manuscript by Henry's great-grandson, Edward Fontaine, and papers gathered by his grandson, William Wirt Henry, including letters Henry wrote as governor of Virginia to Washington and Congress.
