"A Compilation of the Messages and Papers of the Presidents. Volume 8, part 1" compiled by James D. Richardson is a historical collection first copyrighted in 1897. This volume preserves the proclamations, messages, and speeches of Presidents James A. Garfield, Chester A. Arthur, and Grover Cleveland during the 1880s. Part of an eleven-volume series spanning 1787 to 1902, it documents pivotal presidential communications during America's Gilded Age. The compilation itself sparked a political controversy over copyrighting public documents, leading to landmark prohibitions on federal government copyright claims.
