The Genius of Horace Greeley is a biographical book written by Joseph S. Myers that explores the life and legacy of Horace Greeley, a prominent American journalist, editor, and politician of the 19th century. The book delves into Greeley's early life, including his upbringing in rural New Hampshire, his education, and his early career as a printer and journalist. It then follows his rise to fame as the editor of the New York Tribune, one of the most influential newspapers of the time, and his involvement in politics, including his unsuccessful bid for the presidency in 1872. Throughout the book, Myers examines Greeley's impact on American journalism and politics, highlighting his advocacy for social and political reform, his support for abolitionism and women's rights, and his role in shaping public opinion on issues such as westward expansion, immigration, and the Civil War. The book also explores Greeley's personal life, including his relationships with his family, his colleagues, and his political allies and enemies. Overall, The Genius of Horace Greeley provides a comprehensive and insightful look into the life of one of America's most important and influential figures of the 19th century, shedding light on his accomplishments, his challenges, and his enduring legacy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
