Description
As circuit rider, editor, and politican, Brownlow's career was bound up with all the surging battles of religion, war, politics, and journalism in America from the time of John Quincy Adams through the inauguration of Rutherford B. Hayes. A staunch Unionist, he was banished to the North because of his bitter campaigns against the Confederacy. After the war he returned to the South to become Governor of Tennessee and later a U.S. senator. Originally published in 1937.
