4.9/5 (30380 ratings)

Description:Placed within a comprehensive contextual historical narrative, The Life of Daniel Waldo Lincoln, 1784-1815 offers a compelling portrait of one brilliant but compromised man's perspective of his changing times.Daniel Waldo Lincoln, the second son of Levi Lincoln, a prominent Massachusetts Democratic-Republican, was destined to become a man of influence. Born in 1784, equipped with wealth, prestige, a Harvard education, powerful friends, and a distinguished family name, Lincoln ranked high among the inheritors of the Revolution whose purpose was to protect the ideals of the nation's founders. In over 250 private letters, essays, and poems beginning with his first day at Harvard in 1801 and ending just weeks before his death in 1815, Lincoln brings to readers a portrait of privilege as it careened into disappointment. A young man active in Republican circles, an orator and attorney in Worcester, Portland, Maine, and Boston, Lincoln comments on the politics, honor, religion, the War of 1812, and his struggles with romance and alcohol. Written for private eyes, his letters are an unusually candid eyewitness account of early-nineteenth-century Massachusetts interwoven with his personal agonies.This volume is of great use for students and scholars interested in life, society, and politics in nineteenth-century America.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
