Richard Hildreth (June 28, 1807 – July 11, 1865), was an American journalist, author and historian.
He is best known for writing his six-volume History of the United States of America covering 1497–1821 and published 1840-1853.
Historians consider it a highly accurate political history of the early Republic, but with a strong bias in favor of the Federalist Party and the abolition of slavery.
