Publisher's Synopsis

""State of the Union Addresses"" is a collection of speeches delivered by Grover Cleveland, the 22nd and 24th President of the United States, to the United States Congress between 1885 and 1897. These speeches provide a comprehensive overview of the state of the country during Cleveland's two non-consecutive terms in office, covering a wide range of topics including economic policy, foreign relations, and social issues. The speeches also reveal Cleveland's political philosophy and his vision for the future of the United States. This book is a valuable resource for historians, political scientists, and anyone interested in American history and politics.""We view with pride and satisfaction this bright picture of our country's growth and prosperity, while only a closer scrutiny develops a somber shading. Upon more careful inspection we find the wealth and luxury of our cities mingled with poverty and wretchedness and unremunerative toil. A crowded and constantly increasing urban population suggests the impoverishment of rural sections and discontent with agricultural pursuits. The farmer's son, not satisfied with his father's simple and laborious life, joins the eager chase for easily acquired wealth.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
