The Struggle Between President Johnson And Congress Over Reconstruction by Charles E. Chadsey is a historical account of the political and social conflict that erupted in the United States after the Civil War. The book focuses on the power struggle between President Andrew Johnson and Congress over the reconstruction of the South and the rights of newly freed slaves. Chadsey provides a detailed analysis of the events leading up to the conflict, including the assassination of President Lincoln, the rise of Johnson to the presidency, and the passage of the Reconstruction Acts by Congress. He then delves into the heated debate over the interpretation of the Constitution and the role of the federal government in rebuilding the South.The book also examines the various factions within Congress and their differing opinions on reconstruction, including the Radical Republicans who sought to punish the South and ensure civil rights for African Americans, and the Democrats who opposed federal intervention and advocated for states' rights.Chadsey's work offers a comprehensive look at the complex issues and personalities involved in the struggle for reconstruction and sheds light on the lasting impact of this period in American history. The book is an essential read for anyone interested in the Civil War, Reconstruction, and the ongoing struggle for racial equality in the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
