Synopsis

This book is a collection of speeches made by Iowa's second governor, Samuel J. Kirkwood, during his two terms between 1860 and 1864. The speeches cover an array of political, economic, and social issues and offer a glimpse into the challenges and triumphs of a relatively young state facing a tumultuous period in American history (the Civil War). Kirkwood's speeches show eloquence and intelligence, and his words inspired listeners during these turbulent times. His vision extended beyond the urgency of the moment and spoke to the future, helping sow the seeds for the Hawkeye State's enduring legacy of innovation, growth, and prosperity.
