The Life of James W. Grimes is a biography written by William Salter that chronicles the life and political career of James W. Grimes, who served as Governor of Iowa from 1854 to 1858 and as a Senator of the United States from 1859 to 1869. The book, which was first published in 1876, provides a detailed account of Grimes' life, including his early years in Pennsylvania, his move to Iowa, his involvement in the state's politics, and his role in the national political scene during the Civil War era. Salter draws on a wide range of sources to paint a vivid picture of Grimes' life, including personal letters, speeches, and newspaper articles. The book also includes a number of illustrations and photographs that help bring Grimes' story to life. Overall, The Life of James W. Grimes is a fascinating look at one of Iowa's most influential political figures and a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the state or the United States during the mid-19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
