Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This biography of Lucius B. Swift chronicles the life of a prominent civil service reformer during the late 19th century in the United States. Born in 1844, Swift's early life on his family's farm in New York and his service as a soldier in the Civil War instilled in him a deep belief in human liberty and the need for a merit-based civil service system. As a lawyer in Indianapolis, he witnessed the rampant political patronage and corruption that plagued the federal government and dedicated himself to fighting against the spoils system. His efforts, alongside other civil service reformers, led to the passage of the Pendleton Civil Service Act in 1883, marking a significant step towards establishing a more just and equitable civil service. Swift's steadfast advocacy for the merit system and his unwavering belief in good governance continue to inspire those working for ethical and efficient government today.
