Twenty Years of Congress: From Lincoln to Garfield, with a Review of the Events Which Led to the Political Revolution of 1860 is a historical book written by James G. Blaine and published in 1884. The book covers the history of the United States Congress from the time of Abraham Lincoln's presidency to the assassination of James A. Garfield. Blaine, a prominent politician and member of Congress himself during this time, provides a detailed account of the major political events and issues of the era, including the Civil War, Reconstruction, and the rise of the Republican Party. He also examines the factors that led to the political revolution of 1860, which ultimately resulted in Lincoln's election and the secession of several southern states. The book is divided into two parts, with the first covering the period from Lincoln's inauguration in 1861 to the end of the Civil War in 1865, and the second covering the period from Reconstruction to Garfield's presidency in 1881. Blaine draws on his own experiences as a member of Congress and his extensive knowledge of the political landscape to provide a comprehensive and insightful analysis of this important period in American history. Overall, Twenty Years of Congress is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the United States Congress, the Civil War, Reconstruction, and the political developments of the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
