Garfield's Place in History
May 25, 1882 issue

add to cart   close window

This article presents information about the book "Garfield's Place in History: An Essay," by Henry C. Pedder. Pedder rather inconsequentially concludes that it is possible at this early day to properly define the place of former U.S. President James A. Garfield in history because the calm, dispassionate view of the historian will probably not be the same as that warm and living appreciation which time is apt to diminish. He says that the greatest work of Garfield's career will be hereafter reckoned his strong and intelligent finance speeches, made when the inflation craze was sweeping the country.
