Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from George Wallace Jones Described as "a tall, erect figure, fastidiously dressed, with an abundance of curling black hair, an engaging smile, and the manners of a Lord Chesterfield," George Wallace Jones was always an interesting character, whether in the halls of Congress or on the frontier. His varied experiences as "farmer, country merchant, lead miner and smelter, clerk of court, judge, soldier, land speculator, politician, and diplomat" suggest the kaleidoscopic career of the early middle westerner who was able to raise himself above the commonplace. This volume is not strictly speaking a biography: it is, indeed, both biographical and autobiographical. The autobiography and personal recollections of Jones have been supplemented by a comprehensive biographical sketch by Doctor Parish.
