Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Little More Light on Andrew Johnson It was not the fate of Andrew Johnson, during his service as President of the United States, to enjoy an overflowing measure of popularity and good repute. The unfortunate exhibition which he made of himself at his inauguration as Vice-President put him under a sinister cloud whose shadow remained over him for some time after his accession to the Presidency, in the spring of 1865 ;and after February, 1866, the incidents of his conflict with Congress made him the object of more widespread hatred and more virulent vituperation than has been the lot, perhaps, of any other man in exalted public station. Between the earlier and the later seasons of obloquy, however, there was a period during which President Johnson occupied a singularly high position in general public esteem. During the summer and the autumn months of 1865 the organs of popular opinion were practically unanimous in praise of the dignity, patriotism, and high purpose which were displayed in the conduct of the administration. Though doubt as to the wisdom of the Presidents policy in the South was deep and widespread, there was no disposition to attribute to him other than statesmanlike motives; and outside of a very small number of vehement Radicals, a willingness to let his plan of Reconstruction have a fair trial was everywhere manifested.
