Omschrijving

In "Daniel Webster," Henry Cabot Lodge presents a detailed biographical account of one of America'Äôs most iconic statesmen, exploring Webster'Äôs influential role in shaping the nation during the 19th century. Lodge'Äôs literary style combines scholarly rigor with accessible prose, offering readers a profound understanding of Webster'Äôs legal battles, oratory prowess, and political philosophy amidst the backdrop of a rapidly evolving nation. The book contextualizes Webster'Äôs life against significant historical events, such as debates over the Constitution, and the burgeoning tensions over slavery, positioning him as a pivotal figure in American political discourse. Lodge, a prominent historian and politician himself, drew from a wealth of experience and primary sources to craft this meticulous work. His deep-rooted interest in American political history and his own service in government provided him with a unique perspective, enabling him to capture the essence of Webster'Äôs enduring legacy. Lodge'Äôs admiration for Webster'Äôs commitment to national unity and personal integrity resonates throughout the narrative, reflecting the values of his time. "Daniel Webster" is an essential read for anyone interested in American history, political theory, or eloquent oratory. Lodge not only preserves Webster'Äôs legacy but also invites readers to reflect on the complexities of leadership, democracy, and the moral imperatives that shape public service. This book is a compelling testament to the art of persuasion and the power of words in governance.
