His Second Campaign is a historical novel written by Maurice Thompson and published in 1883. The story is set in the aftermath of the American Civil War and follows the life of a young man named Paul Peppergrass who is struggling to find his place in the world. Paul is a Union veteran who returns to his hometown in Indiana after the war, only to find that his family and community have been devastated by the conflict.As he tries to rebuild his life, Paul becomes involved in local politics and eventually decides to run for Congress. The novel chronicles his campaign and the challenges he faces as a young and inexperienced candidate. Along the way, Paul is supported by a cast of colorful characters, including his love interest, a fiery young woman named Nellie, and his mentor, an older politician named Judge Hendricks.The novel is notable for its vivid descriptions of life in post-Civil War America, including the political climate of the time and the struggles of ordinary people trying to rebuild their lives. It is also a story of personal growth and redemption, as Paul learns to overcome his own doubts and fears and becomes a leader in his community.Overall, His Second Campaign is a compelling and engaging novel that offers a fascinating glimpse into a pivotal moment in 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.
