Description: John Tyler by United Library Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Explore the tumultuous era of the 10th President of the United States, John Tyler, in this comprehensive biography that delves into his remarkable life and pivotal role in shaping American history. In John Tylers book readers will embark on a journey through the complex political landscape of the 19th century, where Tylers unexpected rise to the presidency left an indelible mark. Born into a prominent Virginia family, Tylers early years were marked by a commitment to states rights and opposition to the expanding powers of the federal government. As a staunch supporter of slavery and an advocate for states sovereignty, Tylers journey from the Democratic-Republican Party to the Whig Party mirrored the political upheaval of his time. Tylers ascension to the presidency, following the death of President William Henry Harrison just 31 days into office, set a precedent for future vice presidents. His presidency, characterized by strict adherence to a constructionist view of the Constitution, was marked by clashes with Congress, including the Whigs, who expelled him from the party, dubbing him "His Accidency." Throughout his term, Tyler navigated a challenging political landscape, which included vetoing significant Whig-sponsored bills, such as those related to a national bank and tariff rates. Despite domestic policy stalemates, Tyler achieved several foreign policy successes, including treaties with Britain and China. As a firm believer in manifest destiny, Tyler championed the annexation of Texas, setting the stage for its statehood. This biography sheds light on Tylers role as a key figure in the expansion of the United States. This book offers readers a compelling look at a leader whose presidency left an enduring legacy, both in terms of his states rights advocacy and his contributions to Americas foreign relations. Whether you are a history enthusiast or seeking to understand a pivotal period in American history, this book provides an insightful and comprehensive portrait of John Tyler.
