Book excerpt: From New York Times bestselling historian H. W. Brands comes the riveting story of how, in nineteenth-century America, a new set of political giants battled to complete the unfinished work of the Founding Fathers and decide the future of our democracy In the early 1800s, three young men strode onto the national stage, elected to Congress at a moment when the Founding Fathers were beginning to retire to their farms. Daniel Webster of Massachusetts, a champion orator known for his eloquence, spoke for the North and its business class. Henry Clay of Kentucky, as dashing as he was ambitious, embodied the hopes of the rising West. South Carolina's John Calhoun, with piercing eyes and an even more piercing intellect, defended the South and slavery. Together these heirs of Washington, Jefferson and Adams took the country to war, battled one another for the presidency and set themselves the task of finishing the work the Founders had left undone. Their rise was marked by dramatic duels, fierce debates, scandal and political betrayal. Yet each in his own way sought to remedy the two glaring flaws in the Constitution: its refusal to specify where authority ultimately rested, with the states or the nation, and its unwillingness to address the essential incompatibility of republicanism and slavery. They wrestled with these issues for four decades, arguing bitterly and hammering out political compromises that held the Union together, but only just. Then, in 1850, when California moved to join the Union as a free state, "the immortal trio" had one last chance to save the country from the real risk of civil war. But, by that point, they had never been further apart. Thrillingly and authoritatively, H. W. Brands narrates an epic American rivalry and the little-known drama of the dangerous early years of our democracy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The debates between Daniel Webster of Massachusetts and Robert Hayne of South Carolina gave fateful utterance to the differing understandings of the nature of the American Union that had come to predominate in the North and the South by 1830. To Webster, the Union was the indivisible expression of one nation of people. To Hayne, the Union was the voluntary compact among sovereign states.

Book Daniel Webster and the Oratory of Civil Religion

Download or read book Daniel Webster and the Oratory of Civil Religion written by Craig R. Smith and published by University of Missouri Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Annotation Daniel Webster (1782-1852) embodied the golden age of oratory in America by mastering each of the major genres of public speaking of the time. Even today, many of his victories before the Supreme Court remain as precedents. Webster served in the House, the Senate, and twice as secretary of state. He was so famous as a political orator that his reply "Liberty and Union, now and forever, one and inseparable!" to Senator Robert Hayne in a debate in 1830 was memorized by schoolboys and was on the lips of Northern soldiers as they charged forward in the Civil War. There would have been no 1850 Compromise without Webster, and without the Compromise, the Civil War might well have come earlier to an unprepared North. Webster was also the consummate ceremonial speaker. He advanced Whig virtues and solidified support for the Union through civil religion, creating a transcendent symbol for the nation that became a metaphor for the working constitutional framework. While several biographies have been written about Webster, none has focused on his oratorical talent. This study examines Webster's incredible career from the perspective of his great speeches and how they created a civil religion that moved citizens beyond loyalty and civic virtue to true romantic patriotism. Craig R. Smith places Webster's speeches in their historical context and then uses the tools of rhetorical criticism to analyze them. He demonstrates that Webster understood not only how rhetorical genres function to meet the expectations of the moment but also how they could be braided to produce long-lasting and literate discourse

Book excerpt: *Includes pictures *Includes excerpts of Webster's speeches *Includes a bibliography for further reading "When my eyes shall be turned to behold for the last time the sun in heaven, may I not see him shining on the broken and dishonored fragments of a once glorious Union; on States dissevered, discordant, belligerent; on a land rent with civil feuds, or drenched, it may be, in fraternal blood! Let their last feeble and lingering glance rather behold the gorgeous ensign of the republic... not a stripe erased or polluted, nor a single star obscured, bearing for its motto, no such miserable interrogatory as 'What is all this worth?' nor those other words of delusion and folly, 'Liberty first and Union afterwards'; but everywhere, spread all over in characters of living light, blazing on all its ample folds, as they float over the sea and over the land, and in every wind under the whole heavens, that other sentiment, dear to every true American heart, - Liberty and Union, now and for ever, one and inseparable!" - Daniel Webster In a modern era that Americans often view wearily as being too partisan, elections often bring the same questions. Many look back nostalgically to earlier centuries in which it's assumed America had great statesmen, which is understandable in light of increasingly hostile political rhetoric that seems to be more aimed at dividing the country than uniting it. Of course, more serious historians analyze whether these elusive statesmen actually ever existed, and whether there was truly a time when politicians didn't engage in political rancor. It is impossible for any person, politician or not, to be completely pure of heart, but Daniel Webster certainly showed again and again throughout his career that he considered certain principles worth sacrificing nearly everything for. Throughout his life, Webster felt he had to live up to the highest ideals of patriotic loyalty to America's earliest founders. He also stated again and again that the United States Constitution, and the nation that it governed, had to stand, no matter what else might fall for its sake. During his lifetime, he demonstrated that he would make any sacrifice to preserve both, and in so doing, he was instrumental in helping to delay the American Civil War. Today Webster may be best known for being one of the greatest orators in American history, a reputation he earned as one of the young country's greatest lawyers, and even as a pop culture fixture thanks to works like "The Devil and Daniel Webster." But Webster also served in nearly every capacity in government but as president, from being Secretary of State to being a Congressman and Senator for decades. He was recognized as one of the country's 5 greatest Senators, thanks to his work on landmark legislation like the Compromise of 1850, which staved off the Civil War for possibly a decade (and ensured Webster wouldn't live long enough to see it actually take place). Like most men who do great things, Webster was both loved and hated during his lifetime, sometimes by the same people. However, the one thing no one could ever deny was his fiery way with words. In fact, to this day, his quotes turn up in everything from college term papers to political speeches. A countless number of others lived during his day, and hundreds served with him in various capacities in government, only to be forgotten, but Webster, by his words and deeds, secured himself a place in the great pantheon of political thought that may very well last until the end of time. Daniel Webster: The Life and Legacy of One of America's Most Famous Senators and Orators examines one of 19th century America's most influential figures.
