The 12th Presidency (1849–1850)By Atlas Meyers
Length1h 14m
About this audiobook
THE SOLDIER WHO DEFIED THE SOUTH
Zachary Taylor was a political paradox: a professional soldier who never voted, and a Southern slaveholder who became the South's greatest adversary. This volume chronicles the friction of the outsider, exploring what happens when a man of rigid duty is dropped into a machinery built on deceit.
Inside, you will discover:
The "Blank Slate" election of 1848.
The Gold Rush geometry that accelerated the slavery crisis.
The deadlock between Taylor and the Great Triumvirate.
The President's threat to hang rebellious governors.
The sudden death that reshaped the decade.
Taylor treated the Senate like a rebellious platoon, refusing to compromise on the Union. His presidency brought the nation to the brink of war not through malice, but through blunt force. This is the story of the stone wall that stood against the tide, until biology intervened.
