My Own Times: Embracing Also The History Of My Life is an autobiographical book written by John Reynolds in 1879. The book chronicles the author's life, starting from his childhood in Ireland to his immigration to the United States and his eventual rise to prominence in Illinois politics. Reynolds was a lawyer, judge, and politician who served as the Attorney General of Illinois and a member of the United States House of Representatives. In the book, he shares his personal experiences and insights on the political and social events of his time, including the Civil War, the Lincoln-Douglas debates, and the rise of the Republican Party.The book also includes Reynolds' reflections on his personal beliefs and values, particularly his Catholic faith. He discusses his views on morality, education, and social justice, and how they shaped his political career.Overall, My Own Times offers a unique perspective on American history and politics in the mid-19th century, as well as an intimate look into the life of a prominent figure in Illinois politics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
