This is volume twenty-three in a set of 27 that contain letters and documents written by Hamilton, letters to Hamilton, and documents that concern Hamilton but were not written by or to him.

In the seven months contained in this volume, Hamilton served as inspector general of the army raised during the undeclared war with France, and his correspondence deals with recruiting, supplying, and organizing the troops of the Regular and Additional Armies. During this period, Hamilton prepared his "Plan for the providing and issuing of Military Supplies," tried to implement rules adopted by President John Adams, and enforced the "Regulations Respecting Extra Allowances to Officers." This volume contains General James Wilkinson's report on the strengths and weaknesses of the Western Army. In foreign policy, Hamilton opposed Adams's decision to send diplomats to France to negotiate a new treaty, and he enlisted the assistance of James McHenry, Timothy Pickering, and Oliver Wolcott, Jr., in a failed attempt to force Adams to suspend the mission. Finally, this volume contains the first letter in a protracted dispute between Louis Le Guen, one of Hamilton's law-practice clients, and Aaron Burr.

This is volume twenty-two in a set of 27 that contain letters and documents written by Hamilton, letters to Hamilton, and documents that concern Hamilton but were not written by or to him. All documents are presented in chronological order. This volume deals in large part with Hamilton's role as Inspector General of the army authorized by congress to be raised in anticipation of a possible war with France. Much of the correspondence concerns the dispute over the relative rank of the three major generals, Hamilton, Henry Knox, and Charles Coatsworth Pinckney. The one ranked first would be second in command to George Washington in his capacity as commanding officer of the U.S. Army. At the conclusion of the American Revolution, Hamilton was outranked by Picnkney and Knox, but Hamilton was the favorite of Washington, while the other two were favored by President John Adams. Other documents relate to the day-to-day demands of recruiting, supplying, and organizing the troops, including Hamilton's "Army Lists," commenting on qualifications of Army applicants. This volume also contains letters and documents on the Federalist position on the Alien and Sedition Acts, opposition to President Adams's decisions and appointments.
