Fitz-John Porter: Speech of George W. Ray, of New York and Speech of John A. Logan, of Illinois (1884) is a book that contains two speeches delivered in the United States House of Representatives in 1884. The first speech was given by George Washington Ray of New York and the second by John A. Logan of Illinois. Both speeches were in defense of Fitz-John Porter, a Union general who was court-martialed and dismissed from the Army of the Potomac during the American Civil War. The speeches argue that Porter was wrongly accused and that his dismissal was unjust. They also discuss the political motivations behind Porter's court-martial and the impact it had on his career and reputation. The book provides a unique perspective on the controversy surrounding Porter's dismissal and sheds light on the political climate of the time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
