Andrew Johnson: Plebeian and Patriot by Robert W. Winston is a biography that chronicles the life of the 17th President of the United States, Andrew Johnson. Johnson was born into poverty in North Carolina and rose to become a successful politician, serving as the governor of Tennessee and a senator before becoming Vice President under Abraham Lincoln. Upon Lincoln's assassination, Johnson became President and faced numerous challenges, including the reconstruction of the South after the Civil War. The book explores Johnson's political career, his personal life, and his controversial presidency, which was marked by clashes with Congress and his impeachment. Winston presents a detailed and well-researched account of Johnson's life, drawing on primary sources and historical records to provide a comprehensive portrait of this complex and often misunderstood figure in American history. Overall, Andrew Johnson: Plebeian and Patriot offers readers a fascinating insight into the life of one of America's most controversial Presidents.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
