About the Author

Stephens, a U.S. congressman from 1843-59 and vice president of the Confederacy, was one of the most gifted constitutional scholars this country has ever produced.

"Times change and men often with them, but principles never!" Says the author, Alexander Stephens. Stephens, Vice-President of the Confederacy, was among the most brilliant men of his day. Stephens served in the U.S. House of Representatives twice -- once prior to the War Between the States and once after.
