Recollections of Forty Years in the House, Senate and Cabinet
ABOUT BOOK
These Recollections grew out of a long deferred purpose to publish a selection of my speeches on public questions, but in collecting them it became manifest that they should be accompanied or preceded by a statement of the circumstances that attended their delivery.The attempt to furnish such a statement led to a review of the chief events of my public life, which covers the period extending from 1854 to the present time.
