Excerpt from Biographical Sketches of Distinguished American Naval Heroes in the War of the Revolution, Between the American Republic and the Kingdom of Great Britain: Comprising Sketches of Com; Nicholas Biddle, Com; John Paul Jones, Com; Edward Preble, and Com; Alexander Murray; With Incidental Allusions to Other Distinguished Characters The following volume was commenced in consequence of perusing the well known Letter of the venerable Statesman, John Adams, to the well known Editor of the Baltimore Weekly Register, in which this unrivalled American Patriot says to that indefatigable American Journalist, "It is greatly to be desired that young gentlemen of letters in all the states, especially in the thirteen original States, would undertake the laborious, but certainly interesting and amusing task, of searching and collecting all the records, pamphlets, newspapers, and even hand-bills, which in any way contributed to change the temper and views of the people and compose them into an independent nation." Without aspiring to the proud eminence of a "young gentleman of letters," I undertook the "laborious, but certainly interesting and amusing task of searching and collecting all the records, pamphlets, newspapers, and even hand-bills" that came within the scope of my researches. By the goodness of my parents, a very considerable number of Revolutionary pamphlets, from the scattered library of Maj. Gen. Israel Putnam came into my hands. By researches, which would remind a lover of Shakspeare of one o(his characters, who sought "for two kernels of wheat, in two bushels of chaff," I gathered a file of newspapers, embracing the whole period of the War of the American Revolution; and containing a vast variety of facts relating to Naval Heroes, not to be found in voluminous histories of that wonderful war.
