The future of our country depends so much upon the distinguished and remarkable individual who now occupies the Presidential Chair, that a portrait of his life and character, adapted to general use, cannot fail to receive a favorable reception from the entire community. Such a biographical sketch, written by a countrywoman of the Chief Magistrate, may also be supposed to interest, in a particular manner, that sex who have suffered so fearfully during the late terrible war, and who now rejoice with all their hearts at the prospects of Peace, Union, and Prosperity which the noble and patriotic conduct of the President is rapidly restoring to every section of the great Republic. A true-hearted woman naturally admires and appreciates great and heroic excellence. Her tribute of esteem and gratitude for brave and magnanimous actions is shadowed by no jealousy and colored by no party opinions.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book tells the life story and political career of Andrew Johnson, who rose from extreme poverty to become the 17th president of the United States. It is a biography focused on a tumultuous and transformative period in U.S. history. The author traces Johnson's humble beginnings and lack of formal education to his early career as a tailor and local politician. The book follows his rise to national prominence as a congressman and senator during the antebellum era. As a Tennessee senator, Johnson proved himself a strong supporter of states' rights and an opponent of abolitionism. Yet, when his home state seceded from the Union, he remained loyal to the United States and served as its military governor during the Civil War. After President Lincoln's assassination, Johnson inherited the presidency and is best known for his Reconstruction agenda that set the course for post-Civil War America. This book offers an in-depth exploration of Johnson's presidency, his relationships with the Radical Republicans in Congress, and his contentious impeachment. The author sheds light on Johnson's complex legacy, particularly his efforts at reconciliation between the North and South. The book is an insightful and well-rounded account of Johnson's life and the political landscape of 19th-century America.
