Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Review of Pierce´s Administration: Showing Its Only Popular Measures to Have Originated With the Executive of Millard Fillmore The administration of Franklin Pierce is the subject of the chapters in this work. Had it been marked only by ordinary events, the writer would never have undertaken the task of reviewing it. But, as it has been one of the most extraordinary in its acts and policy which has characterized the annals of our country, and as "history is philosophy teaching by experience," a true analysis and exposition of the principal acts of the administration have been deemed of paramount importance, not only for the instruction and benefit of the present generation, but for statesmen and the rising generation who may come after us. The political friends of the administration will do injustice if they ascribe the motives of the writer to personal interest, or prejudice, or to any feelings of partisan zeal. The acts of the administration speak for themselves; they are written in capitals broad as the republic, and conspicuous as the sun in the firmament; - they tell their own tale! Some may think that it is not the province of a woman to enter on the rough path of a political critic, or to presume to discuss subjects which belong to the other sex.
