Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book narrates the story of renowned American statesman Thomas Ewing, a pioneer figure of Ohioâs early political landscape and a man of deep integrity and intellect. A highly respected senator, Secretary of the Treasury, and Secretary of the Interior, Ewingâs accomplishments were made even more extraordinary by his humble origins and the era of dramatic social and political change in which he lived. The author humanizes the great man, exploring the details of Ewingâs life outside of the Senate chamber to reveal a character marked by unyielding conviction and a compassionate nature that made him both a relentless opponent and a strong advocate for justice. Ewing was called on to navigate some of the most contentious issues of his day, including the abolition of slavery, the Civil War, and the reconstruction of the South. His tenacious pursuit of what he believed to be right and his firm faith in the power of Catholicism to transform lives made him an inspirational figure among his contemporaries and for generations after. This book includes discussion of the intellectual ferment of the early 19th century, addressing issues such as the evolution of political parties and the role of Catholicism in American society. The author chronicles Ewingâs life with such depth that readers gain a comprehensive understanding of the man, his milieu, and his profound legacy.
