The Pretensions Of Thomas Jefferson To The Presidency Examined: And The Charges Against John Adams Refuted is a political treatise written by William Loughton Smith in 1796. The book is a critique of Thomas Jefferson's qualifications for the presidency and an argument in favor of John Adams' re-election. Smith, a Federalist politician from South Carolina, argues that Jefferson's lack of military and executive experience make him unfit for the presidency, while Adams' long record of service to the country and his leadership during the Revolutionary War make him the more qualified candidate. The book also addresses the charges made against Adams by his opponents, including allegations of monarchism and corruption, and argues that these accusations are baseless. Overall, The Pretensions Of Thomas Jefferson To The Presidency Examined is a passionate defense of the Federalist Party and its values, and a scathing critique of its political opponents.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
