The Life And Political Opinions Of Martin Van Buren by William M. Holland is a comprehensive biography of the eighth President of the United States, Martin Van Buren. The book covers Van Buren's life from his birth in Kinderhook, New York, to his rise in politics as a member of the Democratic-Republican Party, his service as Governor of New York, and his eventual election to the presidency in 1836. Holland delves into the political opinions and beliefs of Van Buren, including his support for states' rights, his opposition to the National Bank, and his stance on slavery. The book also explores Van Buren's role in the formation of the Democratic Party and his efforts to maintain unity within the party during his presidency. The biography provides insight into Van Buren's personal life, including his marriage to his wife, Hannah, and his relationships with his children. It also covers the major events of his presidency, such as the Panic of 1837 and the Amistad case. Overall, The Life And Political Opinions Of Martin Van Buren offers a detailed and balanced account of the life and career of one of America's lesser-known presidents, shedding light on his contributions to American politics and government.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
