Andrew Johnson, President of the United States: His Life and Speeches by Lillian Foster is a comprehensive biography of the 17th President of the United States. The book explores Johnson's life, from his humble beginnings as a tailor's apprentice to his rise to the presidency after the assassination of Abraham Lincoln. Foster delves into Johnson's political career, including his time as a senator and governor of Tennessee, and his controversial presidency, which was marked by conflicts with Congress and the impeachment proceedings against him. The book also features a collection of Johnson's speeches, including his famous Swing Around the Circle tour in which he attempted to rally support for his policies. Foster provides context for each speech, offering insight into Johnson's beliefs and motivations. Throughout the book, she examines Johnson's legacy, including his impact on Reconstruction and civil rights, and his place in American history. Overall, Andrew Johnson, President of the United States: His Life and Speeches is a detailed and engaging portrait of a complex and often misunderstood figure in American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
