Book Synopsis The Cabinet by : Lindsay M. Chervinsky
Download or read book The Cabinet written by Lindsay M. Chervinsky and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2020-04-07 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The US Constitution never established a presidential cabinet—the delegates to the Constitutional Convention explicitly rejected the idea. So how did George Washington create one of the most powerful bodies in the federal government? On November 26, 1791, George Washington convened his department secretaries—Alexander Hamilton, Thomas Jefferson, Henry Knox, and Edmund Randolph—for the first cabinet meeting. Why did he wait two and a half years into his presidency to call his cabinet? Because the US Constitution did not create or provide for such a body. Washington was on his own. Faced with diplomatic crises, domestic insurrections, and constitutional challenges—and finding congressional help lacking—Washington decided he needed a group of advisors he could turn to. He modeled his new cabinet on the councils of war he had led as commander of the Continental Army. In the early days, the cabinet served at the president’s pleasure. Washington tinkered with its structure throughout his administration, at times calling regular meetings, at other times preferring written advice and individual discussions. Lindsay M. Chervinsky reveals the far-reaching consequences of Washington’s choice. The tensions in the cabinet between Hamilton and Jefferson heightened partisanship and contributed to the development of the first party system. And as Washington faced an increasingly recalcitrant Congress, he came to treat the cabinet as a private advisory body to summon as needed, greatly expanding the role of the president and the executive branch.

Download or read book The President's Kitchen Cabinet written by Adrian Miller and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2017-02-09 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An NAACP Image Award Finalist for Outstanding Literary Work—Non Fiction James Beard award–winning author Adrian Miller vividly tells the stories of the African Americans who worked in the presidential food service as chefs, personal cooks, butlers, stewards, and servers for every First Family since George and Martha Washington. Miller brings together the names and words of more than 150 black men and women who played remarkable roles in unforgettable events in the nation's history. Daisy McAfee Bonner, for example, FDR's cook at his Warm Springs retreat, described the president's final day on earth in 1945, when he was struck down just as his lunchtime cheese souffle emerged from the oven. Sorrowfully, but with a cook's pride, she recalled, "He never ate that souffle, but it never fell until the minute he died." A treasury of information about cooking techniques and equipment, the book includes twenty recipes for which black chefs were celebrated. From Samuel Fraunces's "onions done in the Brazilian way" for George Washington to Zephyr Wright's popovers, beloved by LBJ's family, Miller highlights African Americans' contributions to our shared American foodways. Surveying the labor of enslaved people during the antebellum period and the gradual opening of employment after Emancipation, Miller highlights how food-related work slowly became professionalized and the important part African Americans played in that process. His chronicle of the daily table in the White House proclaims a fascinating new American story.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the United States, ours is a government "of the people, by the people, for the people," according to Lincoln's famous Gettysburg Address. But how did the federal and state branches of government get to be so complex—and why did a separation of powers evolve in the first place? Aiming to demystify many of these issues in terms modern students can understand, By the People examines the history of American government, making use of maps, charts, call-outs, and other infographic-packed features to spotlight memorable facts and bolster the surrounding narrative. "We the People" sidebars provide biographical sketches of key figures, from senators and presidents to justices and mayors. A historical survey of the presidential cabinet, from its beginnings to current structure, including its executive role and influential members such as Salmon P. Chase.

Book Synopsis The First Presidential Cabinet by : Lindsay Mitchell Chervinsky
Download or read book The First Presidential Cabinet written by Lindsay Mitchell Chervinsky and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the United States, members of the cabinet arguably possess more power and influence than any other government official after the President. Yet, the Constitution does not describe their positions or their relationship to the president. Indeed, the legal origins, customs, and practices leading to the creation of the President’s cabinet remain obscure. “The First Presidential Cabinet: Military, State, and British Origins,” analyzes three origins that led to the formation of the cabinet: Washington's leadership practices as Commander-in-Chief of the Continental Army during the Revolutionary War; the cabinets established at the state level during the colonial and Articles of Confederation eras (1700-1789); and the role of the British cabinet in shaping American political culture and institutions. This work also demonstrates how Washington created lasting precedent that continues to shape the executive branch today. In the spring of 1793, the outbreak of war between France and Britain forced Washington to call regular cabinet meetings for the first time to respond to the international crisis. As Washington integrated the cabinet into regular executive practice, he drew on the military, state, and British origins. As Commander-in-Chief of the Continental Army, Washington regularly held councils of war to discuss strategy with his officers. Washington frequently submitted questions for consideration during these meetings and requested written opinions in the event the officers disagreed. As President, Washington also sent questions to the department secretaries in advance and often requested additional written opinions. Washington and his secretaries also had extensive experience with the councils in the state governments. They objected to the limitations councils placed on executive action and they worked to create a strong, independent executive that avoided the weaknesses of the state governors. Finally, the American public viewed the British cabinet as the source of corruption in the British government. Washington and his secretaries worked to avoid comparisons to the British model and maintain the appearance of republican virtue in the American cabinet.
