""The Boyhood and Youth of Joseph Hodges Choate"" is a biographical account of the early life of Joseph Hodges Choate, written by his sister-in-law Caroline Dutcher Sterling Choate. The book chronicles Choate's childhood and adolescence, from his birth in Salem, Massachusetts in 1832 to his graduation from Harvard Law School in 1854. Through anecdotes and personal recollections, the author paints a portrait of Choate as a precocious and ambitious young man, with a keen intellect and a passion for learning. She also delves into his family background, describing his parents and siblings, and explores the social and cultural milieu of mid-19th century New England. This book offers a fascinating glimpse into the formative years of one of America's most prominent lawyers and statesmen, and provides insight into the social and intellectual history of the era.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
