The People's Presidential Candidate: Or The Life Of William Henry Harrison, Of Ohio (1839) is a biographical work written by Richard Hildreth. The book provides a detailed account of the life of William Henry Harrison, a prominent American military officer and politician who served as the ninth President of the United States. The book begins with a brief overview of Harrison's family background and early life, including his education and military service during the War of 1812. It then delves into his political career, including his time as a delegate to Congress, Governor of the Indiana Territory, and his unsuccessful bid for the presidency in 1836. Throughout the book, Hildreth paints a portrait of Harrison as a man of great integrity and patriotism, who was deeply committed to the principles of democracy and the welfare of the American people. He also provides insights into the political climate of the time, including the growing tensions between the North and South over the issue of slavery.Overall, The People's Presidential Candidate is a well-researched and engaging biography that sheds light on the life and legacy of one of America's most important historical figures. It is a must-read for anyone interested in American history, politics, and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
