The Life Of Henry Bruce is a biography written by Harry T. Morgan. The book is a detailed account of the life of Henry Bruce, who was a prominent figure in American politics in the late 19th century. Bruce was born into slavery in Virginia in 1835 and rose to become the first African American to serve a full term in the United States Senate. The book covers Bruce's early life as a slave, his education, and his involvement in politics. It also explores his role in the Civil War and his work as a lawyer and journalist. The biography delves into Bruce's political career, including his time in the Mississippi state legislature and his election to the U.S. Senate in 1874. Morgan's writing provides insight into the challenges that Bruce faced as an African American in a predominantly white political system. The book also highlights Bruce's efforts to promote civil rights and equality for all Americans. Overall, The Life Of Henry Bruce is a compelling biography that sheds light on an often-overlooked figure in American history. It provides a detailed account of Bruce's life and legacy, and offers readers a glimpse into the struggles and triumphs of African Americans during a pivotal time in American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
