Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Great Senators of the United States Forty Years Ago: With Personal Recollections and Delineations of Calhoun, Benton, Clay, Webster, General Houston, Jefferson Davis, and Other Distinguished Statesmen of That Period
My main purpose in writing this book was to tell some interesting things (which I suppose nobody else can tell) about distinguished states men who came under my personal observation when I was a reporter in the United States Senate, more than forty years ago, and of whose characters I have made particular study.
