Choate (1799-1859) was an American lawyer, orator and statesman.<br />

"The memoir of Choate is of moderate merit, somewhat superficial and<br />

helped out by long quotations from memorial addresses. It is, however,<br />

fair and accurate, and written in good plain English. Choate's<br />

speeches are of much more interest and deal fully and thoroughly with<br />

many subjects, notably with the McLeod case; Protection; the Oregon<br />

question, the Annexation of Texas; Webster; Slavery, and Judicial<br />

tenure. The point of view is always that of a Webster Whig."<br />
