Life And Reminiscences Of Jefferson Davis is a biographical work written by John Warwick Daniel in 1890. The book is a detailed account of the life of Jefferson Davis, who was the President of the Confederate States of America during the American Civil War. The author, Daniel, was a close friend and political ally of Davis, and had access to his personal papers, letters, and other documents, which he used to write this book.The book begins with a brief overview of Davis's early life, including his childhood, education, and military career. It then goes on to describe his political career, including his tenure as a U.S. Senator from Mississippi, his appointment as Secretary of War under President Franklin Pierce, and his election as President of the Confederacy.The book also provides a detailed account of the Civil War, including Davis's role in leading the Confederate army and his efforts to secure foreign aid for the Confederacy. It also covers Davis's post-war life, including his imprisonment and eventual release, his return to private life, and his efforts to rebuild the South.Throughout the book, Daniel offers his own reflections on Davis's life and legacy, and provides insights into the political and social context of the time. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the American Civil War and the life of Jefferson Davis.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
