Book Description
Excerpt from Biographical Sketches of the Distinguished Men of Columbia County It will be perceived that many of the subjects of these sketches are national in their character, consequently this work will not only be interesting to the citizens of Columbia county and the State of New-York, but to those of every state in the Union. Her distinguished sons have filled the most important offices in the state and general governments, and their acts and labors constitute an important portion of the history not only of the State of New-York, but of the nation. This county is greatly distinguished for the number and exalted talents of her lawyers and statesmen; and she is equally so for her military and naval heroes. The names of Worth and Allen are known throughout the world. This county has produced one President of the United States, one Vice-President, three Governors of States and Territories, three Foreign Ministers, one Secretary of State of the United States, one Secretary of the Department of War, one United States Attorney-General, one Judge of the United States District Court, two or three Supreme Court Judges, one Circuit Judge, three Attorney-Generals of the State of New-York, and two United States Senators; besides many distinguished Members of Congress, and other officers, both of the State and General Governments.

Book Description
A new biography of the 8th president of the United States, the first chief executive not born a British citizen and the first to use the party system to chart his way from tavern-keeper's son to the pinnacle of power. Martin Van Buren was one of the most remarkable politicians not only of his time but in American presidential history. The principal architect of the party system and one of the founders of the Democratic Party, he came to dominate New York-then the most influential state in the Union-and was instrumental in electing Andrew Jackson president. Van Buren's skills as a political strategist were unparalleled (he was known as the "Little Magician"), winning him a series of high-profile offices: US senator, New York's governor, US secretary of state, US vice president, and finally the White House. In his rise to power, Van Buren sought consensus and conciliation, bending to the wishes of slave interests and complicit in the dispossession of America's Indigenous population--two of the darkest chapters in American history. This new biography of Van Buren -- the first full-scale portrait in four decades -- charts his ascent from a tavern in the Hudson Valley to the presidency, concluding with his late-career involvement in an antislavery movement. Offering vivid profiles of the day's leading figures (Andrew Jackson, Henry Clay, John C. Calhoun, John Quincy Adams, DeWitt Clinton, James K. Polk), James Bradley's book depicts the struggle for power in the tumultuous decades leading up to the Civil War.
