Download from RapidGatorH. L. Trefousse's Benjamin Franklin Wade: Radical Republican from Ohio is a compelling biography of one of the most influential yet often overlooked figures of the Civil War and Reconstruction era. A fierce advocate for abolition, civil rights, and congressional supremacy, Wade played a crucial role in shaping the nation's postwar policies.
As a leading Radical Republican, Wade championed emancipation and fought tirelessly for the rights of formerly enslaved people. He was a staunch opponent of President Andrew Johnson, co-authoring the Wade-Davis Bill and later serving as president pro tempore of the Senate. His unyielding support for impeachment put him within reach of the presidency during Johnson's trial, highlighting his prominence in national politics.
Trefousse explores Wade's fiery rhetoric, unwavering principles, and contentious relationships with fellow politicians. He examines Wade's impact on Reconstruction, his advocacy for women's suffrage, and his deep commitment to egalitarian ideals. Drawing on extensive research, the book presents a nuanced portrait of a man whose radicalism helped shape modern America.
This biography is essential reading for those interested in Civil War politics, Reconstruction, and the enduring struggle for equality.
