Dust jacket hand covered in protective archival grade Mylar for many worry free years of reading/collecting! A brilliantly conceived and vividly drawn story Washington, D.C. on the eve of Abraham Lincoln's historic second inaugural address as the lens through which to understand all the complexities of the Civil War By March 4, 1865, the Civil War had slaughtered more than 700,000 Americans and left intractable wounds on the nation. After a morning of rain-drenched fury, tens of thousands crowded Washington's Capitol grounds that day to see Abraham Lincoln take the oath for a second term. As the sun emerged, Lincoln rose to give perhaps the greatest inaugural address in American history, stunning the nation by arguing, in a brief 701 words, that both sides had been wrong, and that the war's unimaginable horrors every drop of blood spilled might well have been God's just verdict on the national sin of slavery. Edward Achorn reveals the nation's capital on that momentous day with its mud, sewage, and saloons, its prostitutes, spies, reporters, social-climbing spouses and power-hungry politicians as a microcosm of all the opposing forces that had driven the country apart. A host of characters, unknown and famous, had converged on Washington from grievously wounded Union colonel Selden Connor in a Washington hospital and the embarrassingly drunk new vice president, Andrew Johnson, to poet-journalist Walt Whitman; from soldiers' advocate Clara Barton and African American leader and Lincoln critic-turned-admirer Frederick Douglass (who called the speech "a sacred effort") to conflicted actor John Wilkes Booth all swirling around the complex figure of Lincoln. In indelible scenes, Achorn vividly captures the frenzy in the nation's capital at this crucial moment in America's history and the tension-filled hope and despair afflicting the country as a whole, soon to be heightened by Lincoln's assassination. His story offers new understanding of our great national crisis and echoes down the decades to resonate in our own time. Signed by Author(s).

He compares the election to American independence, saying ?A revolution next in importance to the country, to that of achieving by our ancestors our separation & independence from England, brought about by the force of reason through the ballot box without a drop of blood having been spilled.??He manifests his own feelings: ?There are but few if a single individual in the whole land, who rejoices more sincerely in spirit & in truth than I do, at the recent result of our most glorious political campaign, which I consider fully as important to the country as was the surrender of Burgoyne at Saratoga, & that of Cornwallis at Yorktown.??He complains of the degeneration of integrity in government during the previous dozen years under Andrew Jackson and Martin Van Buren, and offers that his opinion ?has been caused by acts committed almost daily by those in power, which I consider alike disgraceful to the country, as well as boding no good either to the purity, or permanency of our institutions.??He seeks military reform, ?restoring to the good old System adopted & pursued by the father of his country, Gen'l Washington??Under the incoming President Harrison: ?I flatter myself that the days of persecution and favoritism are nearly at an end, and the time soon will be when justice will be done to you, as well as that every officer of the government, civil and military, will not only be required, but compelled within their proper stations to do their duty as it was intended they should do by the framers of the Constitution for the benefit of the people?Zachary Taylor and William Henry Harrison formed a mutual respect beginning in 1811 when Taylor, who became commander of Fort Knox, served under Harrison, who was governor of the Indiana Territory. Taylor then led American troops in the Seminole War in Florida in the 1830s. After that, he toured the nation with his family and met with military leaders. During this period, he began to be interested in politics and corresponded with soon-to-be-President Harrison.In 1836, incumbent president Andrew Jackson decided to retire after two terms and supported his vice-president, Martin Van Buren, for the Democratic Party nomination. This support was decisive and Van Buren secured the nomination in Baltimore at the Democratic National Convention. The Whig Party emerged during the 1834 mid-term elections as the chief opposition to the Democrats, and in 1836 would participate in their first presidential election. By the middle of 1836, Harrison had replaced Daniel Webster as the preferred Whig candidate in the north and border states. The south boosted Tennessee Senator Hugh Lawson White as its contender. Unable to agree on a single candidate, the Whigs ended up with two tickets: William Henry Harrison for president and Francis Granger for vice- president in the north and border states, which made them the major Whig contenders, and Hugh Lawson White for president and John Tyler for vice-president in the south. The hope was that each would carry his region, and the House of Representatives would select between the two Whigs. This was the only race in American history in which a major political party intentionally ran two presidential candidates at once.On March 4, 1841, William Henry Harrison was inaugurated, becoming the 9th president of the United States. As President, Harrison made Taylor commander of the Second Department of the Army's Western Division in May 1841. Taylor would himself become President in 1849, in the wake of the Mexican War.This is an important letter of Taylor from the period after Harrison?s election, which he analyzes in depth, but before his inauguration. He focuses on many key public questions of the day, stresses the importance of the successful campaign of Harrison for president, comparing that to America's independence from Great Britain, and the military victories at Saratoga and Yorktown during the American Revolution. He complains of the degeneration of integrity in.
