Book Description
Excerpt from Memorial Addresses on the Life and Character of Isham G. Harris: Late a Senator From Tennessee A conspicuous figure, Mr. President, and a familiar one, identified as an active and influential factor in the history of this Chamber and of the country, is no longer one of us. Isham green harris for more than twenty years sat in this Chamber as a Senator from Tennessee, and for the last ten years it has been my honor and pleasure to be associated with him as his colleague. He died last evening at his residence in sight of this Capitol at an advanced age; an age, however, which he ever kept green and bright and buoyant until prostrated by his recent illness. Tennessee and the entire country mourn his loss. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Isham Green Harris rose to prominence as leader of the southern rights wing of the Democratic Party in the 1850's. During the secession crisis of 1861, he used his influence and constitutional power as governor to trample on the Tennessee constitution in order to align Tennessee with the Confederacy; he tirelessly supported the Confederate war effort. When the war ended, he went into voluntary and temporary exile in Mexico, returning home in late 1867. He eventually became the best known of the state's Bourbon Democrats and was elected United States Senator in 1877, remaining in that office until his death.
