Excerpt from Hamilton Fish
In the treatment Of these complications, Hamilton Fish was an opportunist only in the sense that he took occasion by the hand. His aims were Clear and definite, and were steadily pursued. His prime Objective was peace with reciprocal justice. In his adherence to this noble and prae tical ideal, he had his Official Chief's full and loyal support. It is true that the particular measures he recommended were not invariably those that most strongly appealed to the President; but, as events vindicated his wisdom, Grant, who was peculiarly free from vanity and egotism, deferred to his judgment and trusted him more and more.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the life and political career of Hamilton Fish, a prominent American statesman who served as Governor of New York and Secretary of State under President Grant. Born into a wealthy and influential family, Fish entered politics in the 1840s and quickly rose through the ranks of the Whig party. As Governor, he advocated for free schools and the abolition of slavery in newly acquired territories. Elected to the U.S. Senate in 1851, Fish played a key role in national debates over slavery and the Civil War. Although a moderate Whig, he opposed the expansion of slavery and supported the Union cause. After the war, Fish's diplomatic skills came to the fore as Secretary of State. He negotiated the Treaty of Washington, which settled outstanding disputes with Great Britain, and played a pivotal role in resolving the Cuban Rebellion and the Virginius Affair. The author delves into Fish's personal life, his political strategies, and his enduring legacy as a statesman who helped shape the course of American history during a tumultuous era. This book offers a comprehensive and engaging account of a pivotal figure in American politics, shedding light on the complex issues and challenges of the 19th century.
