It then traces his political career, which began with his election to the Georgia House of Representatives in 1853. Lamar went on to serve in the U.S. House of Representatives, the U.S. Senate, and as Secretary of the Interior under President Grover Cleveland.Throughout his career, Lamar was known for his eloquence and his commitment to states' rights and the principles of the Constitution. However, he also believed in the importance of national unity and worked to promote reconciliation between North and South after the Civil War. The book explores Lamar's efforts to rebuild the South, including his support for civil rights for African Americans and his work to establish a system of public education in Mississippi.Lucius Q. C. Lamar: Secession And Reunion provides a comprehensive look at the life and legacy of one of the most important figures in American political history.
