This volume compiles the letters and correspondence of key American figures such as Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, and Lafayette concerning the foreign relations of the United States during the Revolutionary War. It provides insight into the political strategies and diplomatic efforts made to secure alliances and negotiate peace. The opening of this volume presents the context of General Lafayette's significant role in American diplomacy, highlighting various interactions he had with Congress while stationed in France. It details the resolutions made by Congress regarding Lafayette's service and his engagement with foreign representatives, as well as his communications with prominent leaders in Europe.
