Not illustrated. 1918 edition. Excerpt: ... And at the meeting of the Jewish Chautauqua Society, after the death of John Hay, I pronounced the following eulogy, which being brought to the attention of the President, he expressed great satisfaction, and again showed his usual good feeling for my effort: tribute to john hay.

(In a footnote by the editor of the Atlantic, it states that Mr. Emerson did not know the name of the young Secretary, but that undoubtedly it must have been John Hay), and what appealed to the Concord philosopher has appealed to all men at home and abroad who came in touch with John Hay. He was, in my opinion, the highest developed type of ideal Americanism, pure in thought and yet not a Puritan; Christian in faith and in no wise sectarian; American in diplomacy and patriotism, and yet cosmopolitan. He typified and personified all that was lovable in man and all that was sympathetic, human and just in the affairs of the world.

Languages : en
Pages : 265
Book Description
Born into a Sephardic Jewish immigrant family, Dr. Issachar Zacharie was the preeminent foot doctor for the American political elite before and during the Civil War. An expert in pain management, Zacharie treated the likes of Henry Clay, John C. Calhoun, General George McClelland and most notably, President Abraham Lincoln. As Zacharie's professional and personal relationship with Lincoln deepened, the President began to entrust the doctor with political missions. Throughout Lincoln's presidency, Zacharie traveled to southern cities like New Orleans and Richmond in efforts to ally with some of the Confederacy's most influential Jewish citizens. This biography explores Dr. Zacharie's life, from his birth in Chatham, England, through his medical practice, espionage career and eventual political campaigning for President Lincoln.
