Sinossi
Excerpt from Hugh Swinton Legaré
More attention has been devoted to these outward appear ances of Legaré than would otherwise have been done for several reasons. In the first place, this painful experience of his early years cut him off from many of those outdoor sports which make up the chief joys of a normally consti tuted lad, and, added to the inspiration of his mother, caused him to turn to intellectual pursuits with an ambition that never afterwards forsook him. To the same bodily defects may be traced, moreover, a certain hesitating, shrinking, sensitive disposition which at times pained and disappointed even his closest friends. And here and there in his writ ings, especially in his letters, one can detect a certain ia describable note of sadness, no doubt the outcome of a deep-seated morbidness.

Hugh Swinton Legarà (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandDa: Forgotten Books, London, Regno Unito
Valutazione del venditore 5 su 5 stelle
Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the life and career of Hugh Swinton Legarà , a prominent statesman and orator of the 19th century. Born into a Huguenot family in South Carolina, Legarà 's formative years were marked by physical challenges and a deep passion for learning. He went on to graduate from the College of Charleston and continued his studies in Europe, immersing himself in classical literature and Roman law. Upon returning to the United States, Legarà entered politics, serving in the South Carolina legislature and later as Attorney General of the state. His eloquence and legal expertise brought him national recognition, and he was appointed Attorney General under President Tyler. Legarà 's political career was shaped by the complex issues of his time, particularly the growing tensions over slavery and states' rights. The author argues that Legarà 's commitment to preserving the Union while addressing the concerns of the South placed him in a delicate position. Despite his efforts to bridge the divide, the country moved towards civil war. Legarà 's legacy lies in his insights into the challenges faced by the nation and his unwavering belief in the importance of dialogue and compromise. This book offers a valuable examination of a pivotal figure in American history and provides insights into the complex political and social landscape of the 19th century.
