Reading edition

The Life of Nathanael Greene, ... by George Washington Greene, N. Y., 1871. The life intermediate between these two was written in Rome, far away from the proper materials. It therefore is of little value compared with the larger work. It forms volume xx. of Sparks's American Biography. In 1877 appeared A Biographical Discourse delivered at the unveiling of the statue ... to the memory of Major-general Nathanael Greene, by his Grandson, G. W. Greene. But the address, owing to the ill-health of the author, was not delivered. It contains a good short summary of the Southern campaign. Cf. an Eulogium on Major-general Greene, delivered before the Society of the Cincinnati by Alexander Hamilton, July 4, 1789, in Hamilton's Works, ii. 481; and Lodge's ed., vol. vii.; see also Headley's Washington and his Generals, ii. 7-77; Lives of the Heroes, 27-75; Wilson, Biography, 278-286; Rogers, Biog. Dict., 170-185; American Biography (1825), pp. 158-182, etc., etc.
