Book William Windom

Download or read book William Windom written by Robert Seward Salisbury and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book devoted exclusively to the political career of William Windom. It illuminates not only the personal biography of Windom, arguably Minnesota's most influential political figure of the 19th century, but it also casts much light on the differences between the Democratic and Republican parties during the period 1860-1890. Salisbury offers evidence which refutes the traditional view of the Gilded Age that Republicans were the party of big business, characterized by a mediocrity of leadership and permeated by corruption and venality. Rather, Windom and a majority of both parties maintained a consistent stance throughout this period on such questions as the desirability of governmental intervention in the economy, the regulation of private behavior by governmental coercion, and attitudes toward the nation's number of groups which were discriminated against, including women and blacks. An intensive analysis of William Windom's political career - he served in the U.S. House of Representatives for ten years, in the U.S. Senate for twelve years, and was twice appointed Secretary of the Treasury - reveals the post-Civil War era to hold several more nuances than contemporary beliefs allow. Salisbury offers important observations about the essence of both parties and the general political mood of the 19th century.

Book Biographical Dictionary of the United States Secretaries of the Treasury  1789 1995

Download or read book Biographical Dictionary of the United States Secretaries of the Treasury 1789 1995 written by Bernard S. Katz and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 1996-12-09 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Describing the men who have led the U.S. Treasury since its creation in 1789, this book profiles those who have held the cabinet position of Secretary of the Treasury from Alexander Hamilton to Robert Rubin. Each profile provides the reader with an understanding of the man, the problems he faced, and the contributions he made. While focusing on the economic policy problems of an era and the solutions the secretary offered, each profile also includes a vignette illustrating the secretary's personality and background. Some represent backgrounds of money and power, others backgrounds of simplicity and anonymity. Some came to the office with greater stature than when they left, while others made a significant mark on our nation's financial history. Alexander Hamilton, the first Secretary of the Treasury, besides collecting and dispersing the public revenue, made the Treasury a prime agency for promoting the country's economic development and fiscal soundness. Since the Great Depression, the Treasury's regulatory functions have been articulated and elaborated. Working with the President's cabinet and with maximum statistical data, the secretaries have sought to analyze the economic outlook and to coordinate official actions, including policies to maintain a strong and stable U.S. dollar. The essays in this book, written by 24 authorities, illustrate how the Secretary of the Treasury is responsible for formulating and recommending domestic and international financial, economic, and tax policy, participating in the formulation of broad fiscal policies with general significance for the economy, and managing the public debt. The biographies illustrate continuing themes of fiscal management as our nation evolved over 200 stormy years of history. They also provide an intimate look at 69 individual secretaries, with stories and facts about their leadership, ideas, style, and administrative prowess, together with their personality and family lives.
