The Autobiography of William H. Seward is a personal account of the life of William H. Seward, a prominent American politician and statesman who served as the Secretary of State under President Abraham Lincoln. The book covers the period from Seward's birth in 1801 to 1834, when he was a young lawyer and rising political figure in New York State. In addition to Seward's own narrative, the book includes a memoir of his life written by his son, Frederick W. Seward. This memoir provides additional context and perspective on Seward's life and career, including his role in the abolitionist movement, his service as governor of New York, and his tenure as Secretary of State during the Civil War. Throughout the book, Seward reflects on his personal and professional experiences, including his education, his early legal career, and his political aspirations. He also provides insights into the social and political climate of the time, including the rise of the Democratic Party and the tensions between the North and South that would eventually lead to the Civil War. Overall, The Autobiography of William H. Seward offers a fascinating glimpse into the life and times of one of America's most influential statesmen, as well as a valuable perspective on the political and social issues of the early 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.
