The Biography of Millard Fillmore by Ivory Chamberlain is a comprehensive account of the life and political career of the 13th President of the United States. The book delves into Fillmore's early life, his rise to political prominence, and his presidency, which spanned from 1850 to 1853. Chamberlain explores Fillmore's upbringing in a poor family, his education, and his early career as a lawyer. The author also highlights Fillmore's political career, which began as a member of the New York State Assembly and later as a member of Congress. The book provides an in-depth look at Fillmore's presidency, including his controversial decision to sign the Compromise of 1850, which helped to delay the Civil War but also allowed for the continuation of slavery. Chamberlain also covers Fillmore's foreign policy, including his efforts to open trade with Japan and his involvement in the Mexican-American War. Throughout the book, Chamberlain offers insights into Fillmore's personal life, including his marriage to Abigail Fillmore and his relationships with other political figures of the time. The author also examines Fillmore's legacy, including his impact on American politics and his contributions to the country's development. Overall, the Biography of Millard Fillmore is a detailed and informative account of the life of one of America's lesser-known presidents. It provides readers with a deeper understanding of the political and social climate of the mid-19th century and sheds light on the life of a man who played a significant role in shaping American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
