Richard Henry Dana V2 is a biography written by Charles Francis Adams about the life of Richard Henry Dana. Dana was an American lawyer, politician, and author who lived in the 19th century. The book is the second volume of a two-volume set that covers Dana's life from his birth in 1815 to his death in 1882. The book begins with Dana's return to the United States after a two-year voyage as a sailor on a merchant ship. This experience inspired him to write his famous book, Two Years Before the Mast, which chronicled his experiences at sea. The book then follows Dana's career as a lawyer, his involvement in politics, and his work as an author. Throughout the book, Adams provides a detailed account of Dana's personal and professional life, including his relationships with his family, friends, and colleagues. He also explores Dana's views on important social and political issues of his time, such as slavery and the Civil War. Overall, Richard Henry Dana V2 is a comprehensive biography that provides a fascinating insight into the life of one of America's most prominent authors and public figures.
