The Biography of Millard Fillmore, written by Ivory Chamberlain, is a comprehensive account of the life and 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 was marked by the controversial Compromise of 1850 and the Fugitive Slave Act. Chamberlain provides insight into Fillmore's personal life, including his marriage to Abigail Powers and their children. The book also explores Fillmore's role as a Whig Party leader and his relationships with other notable figures of the time, such as Daniel Webster and Henry Clay. The author presents a balanced perspective on Fillmore's presidency, examining both his successes and failures. Chamberlain sheds light on the challenges Fillmore faced during his time in office, including the growing tensions between the North and South over slavery. Overall, The Biography of Millard Fillmore is a well-researched and engaging account of one of America's lesser-known presidents. It provides a valuable glimpse into the political and social landscape of the mid-19th century and the complex issues that shaped Fillmore's presidency.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
