Book excerpt: The rough-hewn general who rose to the nation's highest office, and whose presidency witnessed the first political skirmishes that would lead to the Civil War Zachary Taylor was a soldier's soldier, a man who lived up to his nickname, "Old Rough and Ready." Having risen through the ranks of the U.S. Army, he achieved his greatest success in the Mexican War, propelling him to the nation's highest office in the election of 1848. He was the first man to have been elected president without having held a lower political office. John S. D. Eisenhower, the son of another soldier-president, shows how Taylor rose to the presidency, where he confronted the most contentious political issue of his age: slavery. The political storm reached a crescendo in 1849, when California, newly populated after the Gold Rush, applied for statehood with an anti- slavery constitution, an event that upset the delicate balance of slave and free states and pushed both sides to the brink. As the acrimonious debate intensified, Taylor stood his ground in favor of California's admission—despite being a slaveholder himself—but in July 1850 he unexpectedly took ill, and within a week he was dead. His truncated presidency had exposed the fateful rift that would soon tear the country apart.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life and Public Service of General Zachary Taylor: An Address Known, and his Speech commemorative of his friend, Benjamin Ferguson, also is of record. His eulogy on President Zachary Taylor, however, appears to have been wholly overlooked by Lincoln's biographers and by the compilers of various editions of his works. Nicolay and Hay make no allusion to it, either In their Life of Lin coln or in their painstaking compilations of his writings and speeches. I have found but one reference to it, that in Whitney's Life on the Circuit with Lincoln. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Taylor and His Campaigns: A Biography of Major-General Zachary Taylor The time is past for eulogizing General Taylor. The American people, the World, with an unanimity almost unparalleled, have pronounced judgment upon his deeds. From that judgment there is no appeal; to it his most devoted admirers can wish no addition. The heroic greatness of the man shines forth with a steady and refulgent light that requires no adventitious aid to increase either its brightness or its intensity. It is not the object of the present publication, therefore, to eulogize either him or his deeds, or to attempt to increase the number of his admirers, but to present for their use a clear and succinct account of what he has done. The aim is simply to exhibit the facts, not to laud them. With this view, the events of his life have been obtained from documentary or other unquestioned authority, and then set forth with particularity, indeed, as to dates and places, but with the utmost directness and simplicity of style. Such a book, it was believed, would be far more acceptable at the present time than a larger and more elaborate performance.
