Gerson, Noel B. The Yankee From Tennessee
New York; Doubleday; 1960; Hardcover; Very Good; 382 pp. edge wear to spine ends, boards, corners bumped. ...traces Andrew Johnson's startling career in this fine biographical novel--a drama of stormy political years climaxed by near impeachment. Here is told Johnson's remarkable climb to the Presidency, beginning as alderman of Greenville, Tennessee, rising to the position of governor of Tennessee, and winning a seat in the Twenty-Eighth Congress. Mr. Gerson vividly depicts Johnson's tenure as Lincoln's Vice-President, his ascension to the highest office upon Lincoln's assassination, and the attempted impeachment of him by a radical Republican Congress. Here, too, are re-created the early years of Johnson's life--his struggle against poverty, his self-education with the help of his patient and understanding wife, Eliza. "The Yankee From Tennessee" is a moving biographical novel of the controversial, yet strong and sincere man that was Andrew Johnson--and of the age in which he lived, one of America's more decisive periods.; kb006803;
